This print showcases a historic map titled "MAP: COLONIAL AMERICA". Created in the mid-18th century, this line engraving from the late 19th century offers a detailed depiction of the thirteen original American colonies along with their neighboring French and Spanish colonial possessions. The map takes us back to a time when America was still in its infancy, providing valuable insights into the geographical landscape of that era.

As we explore this intricate artwork further, we discover significant landmarks like the Great Lakes, Atlantic Ocean coastline, rivers meandering through vast landscapes, and even New France - an area once controlled by French colonizers.
