EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print of a wind and current chart of the North Atlantic from 1852 is a true masterpiece of cartography. Created by M.F. Maury and W.B. Whiting, in collaboration with the U.S. Hydrographic Office, this detailed chart provides valuable information on wind and current directions in the Gulf of Mexico and Caribbean Sea.
The chart is color-coded for the four seasons, allowing sailors to navigate more effectively based on changing weather patterns throughout the year. In addition to wind and current directions, magnetic variation and sea temperature are also noted, providing even more essential data for seafarers.
Measuring 95x68 cm, this print is part of a series of sixteen sheets covering both the North East and North West Atlantic regions. Its intricate details showcase the dedication and expertise required to accurately map such vast expanses of ocean.
Displayed at the National Maritime Museum in London, UK, this print serves as a reminder of our enduring fascination with exploration and discovery. It captures not only the technical skill involved in creating navigational aids but also highlights our ongoing relationship with the powerful forces of nature that shape our world's oceans.
