Title: Framed Antique Map of Northumberland By Thomas Moule 1836
Description: Map of Northumberland, circa 1836.
Vignette of Alnwick Castle, bottom right.
Type: Colour Engraving - Decorative steel engraved antique map.
The Moule county maps were unusual for the period in that they were highly decorative.
The scientific rationality of the late 18th & early 19th century had seen a move away from the flamboyance of earlier map making;
emphasising instead a greater desire for accuracy and detail.
Thomas Moule, like many of his contemporaries, however, was drawn to a more simplistic, pre-industrial age.
This was clearly reflected in his maps with their neo-Gothic borders, heraldic shields and views of ancient buildings; ironically, the Moule maps issued later in the 1840's were amongst the first to show the newly constructed railways.
This highly decorative antique county map of Northumberland has been embellished with armorials and other features. It was first published in 1836 and subsequent editions were published until 1842.
This map includes railways and has been coloured by hand.
Publisher: George Virtue 1836 and the James Barclay's Complete and
Universal Dictionary, about 1841, with railways depicted.

Engraver: I Dower.
Framed: 24cm x 31cm.
