The "Map of Northamptonshire" by John Speed is a historically significant cartographic work, first published in the early 17th century. John Speed (1552-1629) was an eminent English cartographer and historian, renowned for his detailed and decorative maps. His most famous work, "The Theatre of the Empire of Great Britaine," published in 1611-1612, includes a series of county maps of England and Wales, among which the map of Northamptonshire is a notable example.

Speed's map of Northamptonshire is celebrated for its intricate detail and artistic embellishments. It provides a comprehensive depiction of the county as it was in the early 1600s, showcasing towns, villages, rivers, and topographical features with remarkable accuracy for its time. The map is adorned with elaborate cartouches, coats of arms, and illustrations of local landmarks, reflecting the artistic style and cartographic conventions of the period.

One of the distinctive features of Speed's maps is the inclusion of historical and genealogical information. The map of Northamptonshire, like others in the series, often features inset town plans and vignettes of significant buildings, offering a rich visual and historical context. These elements not only serve as navigational aids but also as a means of celebrating the heritage and identity of the region.

Speed's work was groundbreaking in its synthesis of cartography and history, and his maps were among the first to be widely accessible to the public, thanks to advances in printing technology. The "Map of Northamptonshire" remains a valuable resource for historians, geographers, and collectors, providing insights into the landscape, settlements, and societal structure of early 17th-century England. Its enduring legacy is a testament to John Speed's skill and vision as a cartographer and historian.
