EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a County Map of Hertfordshire, dating back to approximately 1777. The map is an exquisite piece from "The Large English Atlas: or, a new set of maps of all the counties of England and Wales" meticulously crafted by renowned cartographers Emanuel Bowen, Thomas Kitchin, and others. London-based publisher T. Bowles printed and sold this remarkable creation that now finds its home at Sheffield Libraries in their esteemed collection (912 STF). This antique map offers a glimpse into the historical landscape of Hertfordshire, capturing its towns, villages, and landmarks during that era. Highlighted on this enchanting artwork are notable locations such as Hertford, Watford, Hemel Hempstead, Stevenage, St Albans - each with their own unique charm. Other significant places like Welwyn Garden City, Cheshunt, Hoddesdon, Bishops Stortford, Hatfield, Borehamwood, Hitchin, Letchworth, Harpenden, Bushey, Rickmansworth, Potters Bar, Berkhamsted, Abbots Langley, Ware, Royston, Broxbourne, Chorleywood, and Croxley Green also grace this splendid depiction. With intricate details and precise craftsmanship characteristic of Bowen's workmanship, Kitchin's expertise, and other contributors, this vintage map serves as both a testament to the rich history of Hertfordshire and an artistic masterpiece worth cherishing for generations to come.
