EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a double-page map of North America, dating back to the early 18th century. The hand-coloured engraving, created by an English School artist, measures 66x54 cm and is part of a private collection. It is a plate from "The World described: or, a new and correct sett of maps" by Herman Moll, published by J. & T. Bowles. The intricate details of this map are truly remarkable. With its close-up view, one can appreciate the artistry involved in hand-tinting and colouring each section meticulously. Navigational equipment symbols are scattered across the map's surface, reflecting the importance of exploration during that era. The lettering on this piece adds another layer of historical significance as it provides essential information about geographical locations throughout North America. The use of language further enhances our understanding of how cartography was evolving during the 18th century. As we examine this image closely, we are transported back in time to an era when maps were not only functional tools but also works of art themselves. The absence of people allows us to focus solely on the beauty and accuracy captured within this print. Overall, this photograph offers a glimpse into history through its depiction of an exquisitely crafted map that played a vital role in shaping our knowledge and understanding of North America during the early eighteenth century.
