Created by Augustine Ryther and published in the work "Expeditions in Anglian, Vera Descriptio," this map was produced in response to the famous naval battle between the Spanish and English fleets, known as the Invincible Armada. The map, which is housed in the Royal Library of the Monastery of San Lorenzo de El Escorial in Spain, is a testament to the meticulous detail and accuracy that cartographers of the time were able to achieve. The Invincible Armada map by Robert Adams is not only a cartographic representation of the Atlantic Ocean and the British Isles but also serves as a visual record of the strategic locations and movements of the opposing fleets during the historic battle. The engraving, produced in 1588, was a crucial tool for military planners and historians, providing valuable insights into the geographical knowledge of the era. The map's intricate details, including the depiction of various ports, islands, and coastal features, demonstrate the advanced cartographic techniques of the time. The map's title, "Vera Descriptio," translates to "true description," further emphasizing the importance of accuracy in the production of such maps.
