John Tallis was an English mapmaker and publisher, and John Rapkin was an engraver. Together, they produced beautifully illustrated maps and atlases during the mid-19th century. One of their notable collaborations is "The Illustrated Atlas," which was first published around 1849. It featured detailed maps with decorative vignettes, capturing the cultural, historical, and geographical essence of various regions.

In 1851, Tallis and Rapkin created and published an illustrated map of Ireland as part of "The Illustrated Atlas." These maps were characterized by their ornate borders and intricate illustrations, which often depicted scenes of local interest, historical events, or notable landmarks.

John Rapkin and John Tallis were notable figures in 19th-century British cartography and engraving, known for their collaboration on decorative maps. John Tallis, a publisher, formed the company John Tallis & Company, which produced maps and atlases during the mid-19th century. John Rapkin was an engraver who contributed to many of Tallis's works.

One of their significant collaborations was for "The Illustrated Atlas," published by John Tallis & Company. This atlas, first published in the early 1850s, featured maps adorned with decorative borders, vignettes, and intricate illustrations. The maps were not only practical for navigation but also served as ornate pieces of art, reflecting the Victorian taste for detailed and aesthetically pleasing cartography.

The maps in "The Illustrated Atlas" covered various regions of the world, and each map was embellished with decorative elements that highlighted significant landmarks, cultural features, and historical events. The atlas included maps of countries, continents, and regions, providing a comprehensive and visually appealing portrayal of the known world at the time.
