Berkshire. Bowen (Emanuel)
Berkshire. Bowen (Emanuel), An accurate map of Berkshire divided into its Hundreds, with illustrated title cartouche top right and dedication lower left to George, Duke of St. Albans, the lower margin stating Printed for Carrington Bowles in St. Paul's Church Yard and R. Sayer at the Golden Buck in Fleet Street, London 1756, part hand coloured engraving, mounted and framed, 69 x 85cm overall
Condition Report:
Almost certainly previously glazed, the mount loose from the frame, the glass could probably be sought by the purchaser or this could be restored or re-framed by a professional framer. The map with some discolouration and staining, old folds, creases and some tears, also some losses to borders - the lower border is showing at present as the map has moved in the mount. The colouring appears to be later, or certainly refreshed
