Old World Map of the British Empire, 1872 by Fullarton - Inhabitants & Population, Commonwealth, Colonialism customise_map Because there's so much detailThis Victorian masterpiece map of the British Empire, with its rich original handcolouring, was first published in 1872 by A. Fullarton & Co. in its seminal Royal Illustrated Atlas. The map was engraved by G. H Swanston and is notable for being the last great highly decorative world atlas. A wonderfully decorative map, titled "British Empire Throughout the World Exhibited In One View." As was customary at the time, the Empire is coloured in red.
