John Rapkin was a skilled English mapmaker known for his beautifully illustrated and decorative maps during the mid-19th century. He collaborated with John Tallis, a London publisher, to produce maps that were renowned for their intricate and artistic design. Their joint efforts resulted in the creation of several highly decorative maps that were published in various works, including Tallis's illustrated atlas, "The Illustrated Atlas."

The map "Spain and Portugal" published in 1851 by John Rapkin and John Tallis would have been part of the "The Illustrated Atlas," a popular publication recognized for its aesthetically pleasing and informative maps. The maps in this atlas were often embellished with finely detailed vignettes, ornate borders, and intricate designs that highlighted notable landmarks, cultural aspects, and historical scenes of the depicted regions.

Rapkin's collaboration with Tallis significantly influenced the quality and appeal of 19th-century cartography, and their maps remain highly valued among collectors and enthusiasts of historical maps and atlases.
