Original outline colour; light publishers imprint and very minor spotting to margins, otherwise a fine unfolded example. From Guatemala south to Nicaragua, with engraved vignettes including a view of Belize. John Tallis is without question one of the most renowned cartographers and publisher of the C19th. His maps are the last of the lavishly decorated and ornamental maps, considered to be works of art as well as geographically accurate. He was born in Stourbridge in Worcestershire in about 1818 and it is likely that he stayed in the Midlands working as a publisher in Birmingham, until he moved to London in the early 1840's.
