‘NORFOLK SUFFOLK’ by A. M. Perrot / Migneret c.1824-1835

A decorative, rare and curious 19th Century map of Norfolk and Suffolk which appeared in G. B. Depping’s L’Angleterre. Ou Description Historique et Topographique Du Royaume Uni De La Grande-Bretagne (Paris: 1824-1835).

Drawn by Aristade Perrot (1786-1840) and engraved by Adrien Migneret, the maps from this series are distinct for their fine embellishments relating to the county/counties’ commercial activities, culture and heritage. In the case of Norfolk and Suffolk, there are references to the fisheries and agriculture, to Thomas Gainsborough and Thomas Wolsey, and to Norwich Cathedral.
