EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases America's first national map, created in 1784 by Abel Buell. The hand-coloured engraving measures an impressive 115.2x128.6 cm and is currently held in a private collection. Known as the "New and correct map of the United States of North America" it was meticulously crafted based on the latest observations and best authorities available at that time. The map holds great historical significance, as it accurately represents the territories of North America following the Peace Treaty of 1783, which marked America's independence from British rule. It is humbly dedicated to His Excellency the Governor and Company of Connecticut by Abel Buell himself, showcasing his deep respect for his home state. Every detail on this remarkable piece reflects Buell's dedication to cartography and his patriotic spirit towards a newly formed nation. It serves as a testament to American history, symbolizing both unity and progress during a transformative period. This print allows us to appreciate not only the artistry behind this engraved masterpiece but also its importance in shaping our understanding of early American geography. As we gaze upon this historic artifact, we are transported back to a time when boundaries were being redrawn, paving the way for what would become one of the most influential nations in modern history - The United States of America.
