The map "A Map of The Kingdom of Ireland, Divided into Provinces, Counties and Baronies" published by Laurie & Whittle in 1794 is a historical map that visually represents the political and geographical divisions of Ireland during that time period.

Laurie & Whittle was a prominent London-based map and print publishing firm that operated during the late 18th and early 19th centuries. The company was founded by Robert Laurie and James Whittle, who were both skilled mapmakers and engravers. They gained recognition for producing a wide range of maps, atlases, and prints, which were highly regarded for their accuracy and detail.

Laurie & Whittle's work encompassed various geographical subjects, including maps of different regions, city plans, nautical charts, and atlases. Their maps often depicted the political divisions, geographical features, and topographical details of different parts of the world. Their maps were widely used by travelers, scholars, and government officials of the time.

The firm's maps were known for their aesthetic appeal and quality of engraving, and they were often hand-colored to enhance their visual appeal. Laurie & Whittle's output contributed significantly to the dissemination of geographic knowledge during their era.

One of their well-known works is "A New and Correct Chart of the Channel between England and France," which was a detailed nautical chart depicting the English Channel and the surrounding areas. This chart was widely used by sailors and navigators.

Laurie & Whittle's success continued until the early 19th century when they faced financial difficulties and eventually dissolved their partnership. However, their legacy lives on through their contributions to cartography and their impact on the field of mapmaking during their active years.
