Description
The scene records the arrival of Elizabeth I at Nonsuch Palace during the short period it was not in royal ownership, then belonging to the Earl of Arundel. It is one of only 3 known images of the palace built by Henry VIII near Epsom, in Surrey, in 1538, but demolished only 150 years later. It was a totally new building, rather than an adaptation of an existing one, incorporating some of the first Renaissance architecture in England, including elaborate stucco panels visible in this plate. Apart from fragments in museums, no other trace remains.
TRANSLATION OF COMMENTARY BY BRAUN AS SEEN ON VERSO : "The royal palace in England Nonsuch, ten miles away from London, was magnificently built by Henry VIII. [...] The construction of this complex is so astonishing that it deserves its name Nonsuch, i.e. "none the like". [...] Many excellent craftsmen, master builders, stonecutters and sculptors, Italians, French, Dutch and English, were employed here at the King's expense. In their decoration of the palace, which is adorned inside and out with handsome sculptures, these craftsmen have created a particular work of art that not just equals the antiquities of Rome, but in part even surpasses them." (Taschen)

Color Key
We offer many maps in their original black and white condition. We do not systematically color-up maps to make them more sellable to the general public or buyer.
Copper engraved or wood block maps are always hand colored. Maps were initially colored for aesthetic reasons and to improve readability. Nowadays, it is becoming a challenge to find maps in their original colors and are therefor more valuable.
We use the following color keys in our catalog:
Original colors; mean that the colors have been applied around the time the map was issued.
Original o/l colors; means the map has only the borders colored at the time of publication.
Colored; If the colors are applied recently or at the end of the 20th century.
