EDITORS COMMENTS
This historical map print depicts the region of Westphalia, which is now known as North Rhine-Westphalia in modern-day Germany. The map was published in the year 1897 and is a lithograph, a printing process that uses a flat stone or metal plate coated with a thin layer of grease or wax, with the image drawn in reverse on it. The map was published during a time when Westphalia was part of the Prussian province in the German Empire. Westphalia is located in the western part of Germany, bordered by the Rhine River to the west and the Ruhr River to the south. The map shows the various territories and principalities that made up the region before its unification under Prussian rule. The map includes the cities of Munster, Osnabruck, and Dortmund, which were major centers of trade and industry during this period. The intricate detail of the map is a testament to the advanced cartographic techniques of the late 19th century. The borders of the various territories are clearly marked, and the topography of the region is accurately depicted, with mountains, forests, and bodies of water all represented. The map also includes various annotations and labels, providing information about the different regions and their historical significance. This historical map print is an important piece of cartographic history, offering a glimpse into the political and geographical makeup of Westphalia during a pivotal period in German history. It is a beautiful and intriguing representation of a region that has played a significant role in the development of modern-day Germany.
