Perfect for mounting framing.John Tallis (1817-1876)is considered to be one of the most renowned cartographers and publishers of the 19th Century. His maps are the last of the lavishly decorated ornamental examplesand as such considered works of artas well as geography.He was born in Stourbridge in Worcestershire in 1817 and it is possible he stayed working in the Midlands working as a publisher in Birmingham, until he moved to London in the early 1840s. Tallis then set up the first of his publishing businesses in Cripplegate, with Frederick Tallis (his brother?). The business lasted from 1842 to 1849 when it was dissolved. By 1846, the business had moved to Smithfield. From 1850-1854, John Tallis set up another business, operating as 'John Tallis and Company' and it was during this period that he produced the Illustrated World Atlas, made for the 1851 Great Exhibition.Tallis made the acquaintance of an engraved called John Rapkin who was an inspiration to Tallis. His stunning illustrations turned the rather dull maps in to illumanative and informative works of art.Shipping View Our Categories Decorative Prints World Wide Maps Scotland Maps Architecture Design England Maps Royalty About UsWe specialise in selling all items that can be considered to be Antique Paper. * PRINTS * MAPS * HISTORICAL DOCUMENTS * POSTAL HISTORY * BOOKS * POSTERS * STAMPS * POSTCARDS * EPHEMERA And anything else that is considered Antique and made of Paper.
