EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning engraving of a Map of Rio De Janeiro from circa 1900 captures the intricate details and old-world charm of cartography in the 19th century. The map, sourced from the 10th edition of Encyclopaedia Britannica, showcases the coastline, Guanabara Bay, and navigational equipment used during that era.
The Western script on the map adds to its historical significance, providing a glimpse into how geographical information was presented in the past. The white background highlights the fine lines and delicate craftsmanship involved in creating this piece of art.
As you study this map, you can almost feel yourself transported back in time to an age of exploration and discovery. The detailed depiction of physical geography and sea routes offers insight into how sailors and travelers navigated through Rio De Janeiro at the turn of the century.
With no people present in this illustration, all attention is drawn to the intricacies of Brazil's capital city as it appeared over a hundred years ago. This horizontal print is not just a map but also a work of art that tells a story about Rio de Janeiro's rich history and cultural heritage.
