EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to Lancashire in 1610, as depicted by the renowned cartographer John Speed. From his esteemed work "Theatre of the Empire of Great Britaine" this hand-colored copper engraving showcases the county's rich history and unique landscape. Intriguingly, amidst the intricate details of towns, rivers, and forests, we catch a glimpse of mythical creatures that seem to have emerged from folklore. A mermaid gracefully swims through the waters while a sea monster lurks nearby, adding an air of enchantment to this historical representation. Lancashire's significance as a County Palatine is also highlighted in this artwork. It served as an autonomous jurisdiction under its own Earl or Countess Palatine during medieval times. The grandeur and influence associated with such status are evident in Speed's meticulous rendering. As we explore this image further, it becomes apparent that Lancashire was not only shaped by its political structure but also by its regal heritage. The presence of monarchs such as Henry IV, VI, VII; Edward; Richard III; and Elizabeth symbolizes their impact on shaping the county's past. This extraordinary print allows us to immerse ourselves in Lancashire's vibrant history and invites contemplation about how it has evolved over centuries. Through John Speed's masterful artistry and attention to detail, we can appreciate both the factual accuracy and imaginative elements that make this piece truly remarkable.
