Pictures by Lilian Lancaster
Lilian Lancaster's 1868 map caricature turns the coastline of Wales into a crowned Welsh hero in a red and gold robe, a dragon curling across his cloak. The figure is Owen Glendower, who in the original verse sings King Arthur's long, long pedigree. For someone with Welsh roots, or anyone who loves old maps.
