SMITH, Charles

Working from the Strand from around 1800 Smith produced these beautiful maps, judged at the time to be among the best ever issued. On quite a large scale they contain a wealth of information and much of the fine engraving was executed by Charles Smith himself.

All maps are laid on to cloth and, along with the slip cases, are individually made by hand in our Buckinghamshire workshop. Small and medium maps available unframed. See slip cases & marble paper.

Standard maps are framed in mouldings which we produce ourselves in hand painted and waxed black. Additionally, the large maps can also be framed in woods such as Birds Eye Maple and Walnut which we veneer in the traditional way. See Framing.

Please see individual map sizes for further detail.
