More Information

This is a scarce and beautiful 1791 map of southern India by Robert Wilkinson. It covers from Bombay or Mumbai to Cape Comorin. This exquisite map is absolutely invaluable for those interested in colonial or Indian history, as it shows the boundaries of the territories ceded by Tipu Sultan to the British, Nizam, Maratha or Paishwas following his defeat in the Third Anglo-Mysore War. It also shows the boundaries of Tipu's dominions before the war.

Tipu Sultan was one of India's great, forward thinking leaders, tolerant of Hindus, a supporter of engineering and science, and intolerant of the increasingly imperialistic British. Famously, Tipu kept a dream journal in which he records, among many startling images, a dream in which he was a tiger, attacking and eating a British soldier. This image became his emblem, and appears in sculptures and images of the time. Like his father, Tipu allied with the French to try to drive the British out, but was ultimately outgunned by England's superior weaponry. He died in 1799 defending his capital Srirangapatna during the Fourth Mysore War.

This map was engraved by Thomas Conder and issued as plate no. 37 in the 1792 edition of Robert Wilkinson's General Atlas.

★★★★★
I purchased an historic map, 16x24 inch. It is beautifully printed on heavy stock. The lettering, colors, and details of the map are crisp and easy to read. I am highly satisfied and would certainly purchase from Historic Pictoric again!

★★★★★
Ordered the Pan American Midway print to fit a lovely thrift-store gilded frame. I love showing off Buffalo's rich history and this is a pretty entertaining photo from 1901. Prompt shipping. Sturdy packaging.

★★★★★
I received my print within days of ordering, and it arrived well packed in a mailing tube. The print is high quality and exactly as advertised. I will use Historic Pictoric again in the future!

★★★★★
Excellent product. Great fidelity in reproduction of the original. Fine/minute details were sharp, colors were vibrant, and thickness, texture and overall feel and quality of the paper were excellent. Very satisfied with my purchase.

★★★★★
I have purchased six maps from Historic Pictoric. I find the quality to be excellent. Their customers service is also excellent. Outstanding! I called to exchange a few for different sizes and I could not have asked for a better experience.
Aaron C.

★★★★★
The original map I ordered lacked some of the detail that I had hoped for, but they responded with several more map possibilities to choose from. Excellent service- a far step beyond what anyone expects from online purchases.
Dan M.

★★★★★
I am a owner of 5 maps from Historic Pictoric. From Okinawa, 1945, Europe 1940-1945 battle maps. Now they’re helping me with the battle of Gettysburg. These maps are so much superior to the map on a page in a book. I have framed two of them.
