EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable "Map of North America, 1650" by Nicolas Sanson. As the first printed map to depict all five of the Great Lakes, it offers a fascinating glimpse into the early exploration and cartography of North America. With intricate details and precision, this historic map vaguely locates the legendary lands of Cibola and Quivira in the southwest. Transporting us back to a time when America was still in its infancy, this map also highlights the thirteen colonies that would eventually form the foundation of what we now know as the United States. It serves as a testament to both European curiosity and ambition during their quest for new territories. The inclusion of California on this map is particularly intriguing, showcasing how early cartographers grappled with understanding and representing these vast uncharted lands. The mention of rivers further emphasizes their importance as lifelines for exploration and settlement. As we admire this exquisite piece from Granger Art on Demand, let us appreciate not only its historical significance but also marvel at how far our understanding of geography has come since then. This print invites us to explore an era where legends intertwined with reality, offering a window into an age filled with dreams of discovering untold treasures such as Cibola's Seven Cities of Gold or Quivira's mythical riches in America's western frontier.
