EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of history - the Map of Scotland from 1902. Created by an unknown cartographer, this map provides a detailed depiction of the various counties and islands that make up this enchanting country. From the Hebrides to the Shetlands and Orkneys, every corner is meticulously illustrated, offering a glimpse into Scotland's diverse geography. What makes this print even more fascinating is its inclusion of an inset showcasing the rail networks in Glasgow and Edinburgh. This additional detail highlights the importance of transportation during that era and offers insights into how these major cities were connected. The Century Atlas of the World, published by John Walker & Co in London, was renowned for its accuracy and attention to detail. The Edinburgh Geographical Institute played a crucial role in ensuring that this map accurately represented Scotland's geographical features. As we gaze upon this colorful snapshot from over a century ago, we are transported back in time to an era when maps were not just navigational tools but also works of art. With each county carefully delineated and every island precisely marked, it serves as both a historical document and a testament to human curiosity about our world. This print is truly an invaluable treasure for anyone interested in Scottish history or cartography enthusiasts seeking glimpses into past mapping techniques.
