EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of cartographic history - the "Map of the Indian Ocean, 1902". Created by an unknown artist, this map offers a fascinating glimpse into the world as it was over a century ago. Spanning across East Africa, Arabia, the Indian subcontinent, the Far East, and even part of Australia, this meticulously detailed map provides valuable insights into the geographical features and locations that defined these regions during that time. The vibrant colors used in this print bring life to each country and continent depicted on its surface. The map's creator employed a Mercator projection technique to accurately represent these vast territories surrounding one of Earth's most significant bodies of water - the Indian Ocean. This particular edition originates from The Century Atlas of the World published by John Walker & Co. , Ltd. in London. As we marvel at this historical artifact produced by Edinburgh Geographical Institute in collaboration with The Print Collector, we are reminded not only of our ever-changing world but also how crucial maps have been throughout history for exploration and navigation purposes. Whether studying geography or simply appreciating artistry within cartography, this stunning image serves as a testament to human curiosity about our planet's diverse landscapes and cultures.
