EXTIMAE SCOTIAE pars Septentrionalis, in qua Provinciae ROSSIA, SUTHERLANDIAE, CATHENESIA, et STRATH-NAVERNIAE

This map of the Scotland was published by Joan Blaeu (1598-1673) in his atlas of Scotland in 1654. Though the detailed descriptions commissioned by the Scottish Government and produced by Robert Gordon of Straloch (1580-1661) formed the basis of the atlas, most images were directly copied from a manuscript by the Scottish cartographer Timothy Pont (c. 1560-1614).
