Description
Nederlands: Deze kaart van de Schotse provincie Lennox werd in 1654 door Joan Blaeu (1598-1673) gepubliceerd in zijn atlas van Schotland. Hoewel voor de samenstelling van de kaart gebruik werd gemaakt van nauwkeurige beschrijvingen die in opdracht van de Schotse regering aan de redacteur Robert Gordon of Straloch (1580-1661) ter beschikking waren gesteld, werd het kaartbeeld rechtstreeks gekopieerd van een manuscript uit het begin van de 17de eeuw van de hand van de Schotse kartograaf Timothy Pont (ca. 1560-1614).
English: This map of the Scottish province Lennox 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).
