This large and richly detailed hand-coloured map titled "The North Part of Great Britain Called Scotland" was created by Herman Moll and published in 1714. The map outlines the entire Scottish mainland and islands, featuring political boundaries, towns, rivers, roads, and topographical elements, with finely engraved decorative insets of major cities and notable sites including Edinburgh, Stirling, Dumbarton, Glasgow, St. Andrews, and Montrose. Additional panels include detailed illustrations of Shetland and Orkney islands, various views of Scottish castles, ports, and harbors, and even notes on the natural resources and economic prospects of the region.
