Old Map of Sutherland in 1665 by Joan Blaeu - Dornoch, Tain, Brora, Skelbo, Helmsdale tumc_john_speed Issy-les-Moulineaux and moreThis exceedingly rare, old full colour map of the county of Sutherland in Scotland was created by master mapmaker Joan Blaeu from his workshop in Amsterdam and originally published in 1665 as part of his Theatrum Orbis Terrarum Sive Atlas Novus.
