1654 CONNACHTIA VULGO CONNAUGHTYA fine antique map of the Connaught region of Ireland by Johannes Blaeu. Decorative cartouche with local trades Coats of Arms. This example is from the German edition.Condition is generally very fine with central fold as issued.Overall size approx 59.5cm x 50cm including margins.Joan (Johannes) Blaeu (1596-1673) was a Dutch cartographer active in the 17th Century.
