Description

This magnificent 18th century map is a masterpiece by Emanuel Bowen, Geographer to King George II. Created with his son Thomas for publisher Carrington Bowles, this "Accurate Map of the West Riding" is prized for its extraordinary detail and dense historical text in the margins. It features an elaborate pictorial cartouche and depicts the region's ancient Wapentakes, market towns, and noble estates. As a key plate from "The Large English Atlas," it represents the first major large scale survey of Yorkshire, blending geographical precision with fascinating insights into Georgian social history.
