The vibrant colors and intricate details of this color lithograph transport us back to a time when trade and commerce were at the forefront of global interactions. Originally featured in Philips Chamber of Commerce Atlas, A Graphic Survey of the Worlds Trade published in 1912 by George Philip, this chart provides an invaluable visual representation of international trading routes.

As we delve into this historic image, we are drawn to the multitude of flags representing different nations involved in trade during that era. From Great Britain's iconic Union Jack to flags from other European countries such as France and Germany, it serves as a reminder that commerce knows no borders. The inclusion of funnels on the chart symbolizes steamships' dominance during this period and emphasizes their crucial role in facilitating global trade.
