EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white trade card from the 18th century showcases the work of Thomas Jefferys, a renowned engraver, geographer, and printseller. The intricate design highlights his expertise in mapmaking and cartography, which were highly valued skills during this period. The card features a beautifully detailed globe at its center, symbolizing Jefferys' mastery of geography and his contribution to the field of mapmaking. Surrounding the globe are various elements that represent his profession, including compasses, quills, and inkwells. These symbols emphasize the precision and craftsmanship involved in his work. The elegant lettering on the card proudly displays Jefferys' name along with his occupation as an engraver and geographer. This attention to detail reflects not only his professionalism but also serves as an advertisement for potential clients seeking high-quality maps or engravings. As one of Britain's leading cartographers during King George III's reign, Thomas Jefferys enjoyed royal patronage for many years. His reputation as a skilled craftsman was well-known throughout Great Britain. This print by Anthony Walker captures both the historical significance of Thomas Jefferys' trade card and its artistic beauty. Preserved by The Metropolitan Museum of Art (The Met), it stands as a testament to the rich heritage of British mapmaking in the 18th century.
