One of the most popular cartographers of the 19th Century was John Tallis, a London publisher.  Tallis was renowned for the very accurate and visually most attractive maps and views of all world areas during the Victorian Age.  His star engraver and map maker was John Rapkin.  During the mid 19th Century many books of travel and exploration were published by Tallis, using the extraordinary artistic and engraving skills of John Rapkin.  Beginning in 1851, John Tallis & Co. issued their Illustrated Atlas, which contained maps of all parts of the world.  These detailed maps are particularly prized for their decorative borders and the small finely engraved vignettes of indigenous scenes, people, etc.  Generally regarded as the most decorative mid 19th Century Atlas map of its type.
