EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Map of Cumberland, c. 1695" takes us on a journey back in time to the picturesque landscapes of England's historic county. Created by the skilled cartographer Robert Morden during his flourishing years between 1682 and 1703, this print offers a fascinating glimpse into the past. The map showcases Cumberland, now known as Cumbria, located in the enchanting North West region of England. With its intricate details and precise markings, it provides an invaluable historical record of this beautiful area. From rolling hills to charming villages and towns nestled amidst lush greenery, every corner is meticulously depicted with artistic finesse. As we explore this ancient land through Morden's eyes, our imagination wanders to days long gone by - when horse-drawn carriages traversed winding roads and bustling marketplaces thrived with activity. The map also hints at Cumberland's close proximity to the renowned Lake District National Park – a haven for nature enthusiasts seeking solace amidst breathtaking scenery. Preserved within a private collection today but made accessible through Fine Art Finder's digital platform courtesy of www. bridgemanart. com; this remarkable piece invites us to appreciate both its aesthetic charm and historical significance. It serves as a reminder that art can be more than just visually pleasing; it can transport us across time and space while preserving our collective heritage for generations to come.
