Description
Nederlands: In 1654 publiceerde Joan Blaeu (1598-1673) een atlas die geheel gewijd was aan het koninkrijk Scotland. Blaeu stelde deze atlas samen in nauwe samenwerking met de Schotse regering. Het raamwerk van de atlas werd gevormd door een verzameling manuscriptkaarten van de Schotse predikant Timothy Pont (overleden (ca. 1560- ca. 1614). Dit materiaal werd al vanaf 1626 in opdracht van Blaeu voor publikatie gereed gemaakt door de Schotse kartograaf Robert Gordon of Straloch (1580-1661) die de verzameling aanvulde met 11 kaarten van eigen hand. Tot dat eigen werk behoorde ook deze overzichtskaart van Schotland. Langs de rechterzijde van de kaart is een inzet geplaatst met de eilanden ten noorden van Schotland.; Rechts van de kaart een grote inzet over de gehele hoogte van de kaart: ORCADES et SHETLANDICAE INSULAE. .... Onder aan deze inzet een opdracht van Robert Gordon of Straloch aan de hertog van Hamilton.
English: In 1654 Joan Blaeu (1598-1673) published an atlas which was completely dedicated to the kingdom of Scotland. Blaeu composed this atlas in cooperation with the Scottish Government. The framework of the atlas was a collection of manuscript maps by the Scottish pastor Timothy Pont (c. 1560- c. 1614). This material had been prepared for publication from 1626 under orders from Blaeu by the Scottish cartographer Robert Gordon of Straloch (1580-1661) who completed the collection with 11 new maps. This general map of Scotland is one of those new maps. Along the right side of the map is an inset with representations of the islands north of Scotland.
