Old Map of Rutland, 1611 by John Speed - Rutlandshire, Oakham, Edith Weston, Uppingham, Ketton, Stretton animal with bits of HammersmithThis old, full colour and wonderful map shows the ancient county of Rutland (or Rutlandshire) as it was in 1611. It was created by John Speed and engraved by Jodocus Hondius, and originally published in Speed's "The Theatre of the Empire of Great Britaine". This map looks great at all sizes: 12x16 inches (31x41cm), 18x24 inches (45. 5x61cm) and 24x36 inches (61x91. 5cm), but it looks even better when printed large. I can create beautiful, large prints
