Shakespeare's Britain Wall Map by National Geographic

Step into the world of the Bard with the Shakespeare’s Britain Wall Map by National Geographic, a beautifully detailed piece first published in the May 1965 issue of National Geographic Magazine. This vintage-style treasure is a must-have for Shakespeare fans, history buffs, and Anglophiles alike.

The map transports you to Elizabethan England, marking castles, abbeys, bustling towns, and even the heaths and battlefields that inspired Shakespeare’s most famous works.

For added depth, a handy table lists every Shakespeare play with a British setting, making it both educational and visually striking.

Perfectly sized at 19.25" x 25.5", this wall map is ideal for framing in your study, classroom, or library. Bring Shakespeare’s Britain into your home and let history and drama unfold on your walls.
