EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of history - the "Map of Barbados, c1758".

This print serves as a testament to both the artistry and significance of map-making during that era. It reminds us how maps were not merely tools for navigation but also powerful symbols of imperial power and exploration.
