region map with legend

Hi all,

I have a simple ‘region map’ like the that shown below (currently
generated as a gtk.gdk.Pixbuf) that I would like to plot on matplotlib
axes, and then draw some points and lines on top of. I would also like
to add to my graph a legend that shows what the various colours mean.

Is there any way I can do this with matplot lib? The closest I found
was the following, but there’s no mention of the issue of creating a
legend.

Cheers
JP
