This antique map print, titled 'Trinidad,' dates back to circa 1860 and offers a fascinating glimpse into the geography and cartography of the West Indies during that era. The map, available from Mary Evans Prints Online, features the island of Trinidad and its surrounding waters in the Caribbean Sea. At the heart of the map lies the island of Trinidad, depicted with intricate detail, showcasing its various bays, inlets, and peninsulas. The island's topography is rendered in meticulous detail, with mountains, rivers, and forests all clearly marked. The coastline is dotted with settlements and towns, some of which are named, offering a glimpse into the human presence on the island. The waters surrounding Trinidad are also depicted with care, with various islands and reefs marked, as well as shipping lanes and other navigational features. The map also includes a small inset map of the Gulf of Paria, located to the north of Trinidad, which further illustrates the complex geography of the region. The map's cartouche, located in the bottom right corner, includes an elegant illustration of a native West Indian woman, dressed in traditional attire, holding a fruit and a fan. The map's title, 'Trinidad,' is written in elegant script above her head, while the date, 'Circa 1860,' is inscribed below. This beautiful antique map print not only serves as a valuable historical document, but also as a stunning work of art, showcasing the intricate detail and craftsmanship of mapmaking during the 19th century. Whether for personal collection or as a decorative addition to a room, this map of Trinidad is sure to captivate and inspire.
