Handsome and cleanly engraved map with excellent detail of the provinces of Munster, Leinster, Ulster and Connaught as well as the counties, cities and topography. The map shows the adjacent coastlines of Scotland, England and Wales with just a small amount of detail for them. The decorative cartouche is topped with two cloaked men and adorned with foliage.

References: Law #11.
