This print showcases an exquisite colour reproduction of the Early Coastal Survey Map of the Isle of Wight, Spithead, and Portsmouth Harbour. Originally published in 1794 by the talented cartographer Jos Avery, this map offers a fascinating glimpse into the coastal landscape of that era. The intricate details depicted on this chart provide a valuable historical record of these renowned British locations. The Isle of Wight, with its stunning coastline and diverse topography, is beautifully illustrated with precision and artistry.

Spithead, known for its strategic importance as a natural anchorage for naval vessels during that time period, is also prominently featured on this map. Its deep waters and sheltered bay are clearly marked, serving as a reminder of Britain's maritime heritage. Portsmouth Harbour takes center stage in this visual masterpiece. As one of England's most significant naval bases throughout history, it played a crucial role in protecting the nation's shores. This survey map provides invaluable insights into its layout during the late 18th century. Whether you're an avid historian or simply appreciate fine craftsmanship, this print will undoubtedly captivate your imagination. It serves as both an educational tool and a beautiful piece of art that transports you back to an era when coastal surveys were essential for navigation and defense purposes.
