The map to the left is courtesy of a private collector. Some of the illustrations of Gulliver's edition of 450 were hand-coloured by art students. According to Jonathan Miles and Derek Shiel in their book David Jones: The Maker Unmade, there is controversy over whether Jones intended to include color with the images. It's said that he preferred the black and white engravings, but Miles and Shiel point out that a prospectus was found stating that Jones would oversee the coloring. In any case, a view of an original black and white engraving is shown here, while below you can see hand-coloured plates from volumes that had been put up for auction.
