This is an attractive 1751 map of Scotland by Robert de Vaugondy. It depicts Scotland divided into its Shires or Counties and includes the Isles Westernes or the Outer Hebrides and the Orkney Islands. This extremely detailed map notes important cities, towns, shires, rivers, mountains, roads and a host of additional topographic features. Undersea shoals and reefs of the eastern coast are also noted.

A highly decorative title cartouche appears in the bottom left quadrant. Drawn by Robert de Vaugondy in 1751 and published in the 1757 issue of his Atlas Universal. The Atlas Universal was one of the first atlases based upon actual surveys. Therefore, this map is highly accurate (for the period) and has most contemporary town names correct, though historic names are, in many cases, incorrect or omitted.
