Notes | This is one of the miscellaneous prints trimmed and pasted on sheets at the back of an album containing two series published Frederick de Wit. For a comment on the entire volume see 1937,0802.1.1. The fragment seems to be cut out from one of the late seventeenth-century maps of Scotland published in Holland. See, for instance, Nicolaes Visscher's 'Exactissima Regni Scotiae Tabula' of 1689 (National Library of Scotland, shelfmark Marischal 28), or Frederick de Wit's 'Scotia Regnum divisum in Partem', c.1680 (National Library of Scotland, shelfmark EMS.s.8). | |||||||||||||||||||||||

[edit]This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag. ![]() |
