BLAEU, Willem. Britannia prout divisa suit temporibus Anglo-Saxonum. [Amsterdam: c. 1645 or later].
Engraved map hand-colored, image 412 x 526 mm (506 x 592 mm). (Light marginal staining, short marginal tear.) Matted, framed, and glazed.
Text in Latin on verso. 7 costumed tribal figures in left-hand border, 7 narrative scenes in right-hand border, title cartouche, galleons. The vignettes flanking two sides are identical in subject matter to those used by Speed, but the execution of each is in the style of "an unmistakeable Dutch miniature" (Shirley 549).
