Note
1 map : copperplate engraving on 6 sheets, hand colour. Oriented with north at the right. Arms of the kingdoms of England, Scotland and Ireland in the top left corner, suspended on ribbons issuing from the longitude bar. Inner title in the bottom left corner of the map, in a confidently etched cartouche decorated with a ram's skull and two tiger heads, which support a seated wingless putto. Crowned arms of France, Flanders, the Dutch Republic and Norway along the bottom edge, over the appropriate territories. Inset map of Denmark at the bottom edge of the map, also oriented with north at the right. The framing cartouche is adorned with the arms of Christian IV of Denmark (?) and Allardt's imprint. Scale bars in the bottom right corner, in a cartouche adorned with two putti and a ram - a counterpoint to the ram's skull in the opposite cartouche. Map surrounded by three descriptions of Britain, in English (left), Dutch (bottom), and Latin (right). This is one of two surviving copies of what was only the third wall map covering the entire British Isles, which appeared almost a century after the first (Mercator, 1564). As Rodney Shirley has noted, Allardt used engravings by Stefano della Bella as source material for the designs of his cartouches. The distinctive tiger's heads above the title, for example, are based on an illustration from the fourth and final plate of a series of animal heads by della Bella, which was published by Pierre Mariette I sometime around 1641.
