Etching. Hand-coloured. Illustration to Walpoole's 'New British Traveller: or a Complete Modern Universal Display of Great Britain and Ireland'. 1784. 28.5 x 19.5 cm (image/impression). Mounted.

When this map was published, in 1783 Britain had just formally recognised the independent United States of America. In France, the Montgolfier brothers had just made the first hot air balloon ascent, while in 1784 Vincent Lunardi made the first hot air balloon flight in London.
