Image description

These views show Windsor Castle and the surrounding areas as Shakespeare would have known it, and as he portrays it in his comedy The Merry Wives of Windsor (written c.1597-1600, and first published 1602). The Survey of Windsor, as this manuscript is usually called, mapped the extent of Crown lands in and around Berkshire for James I, who had inherited the throne of England in 1603. The King’s copy is in the British Library
