EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures a piece of history with its representation of the island of Jamaica in the Antilles. The map is taken from "The West Indian Atlas or General Description of West Indies" by Thomas Jefferys, geographer of the Prince of Wales, dating back to 1774. Housed in the Biblioteca Jose Marti in Havana, Cuba, this artifact provides a glimpse into the past and showcases the intricate details that were meticulously recorded by Jefferys.
The map not only serves as a geographical tool but also as a historical document that sheds light on the early exploration and colonization of the Caribbean region. With its engravings and detailed markings, it offers valuable insights into the landscape and topography of Jamaica during that time period.
As we admire this piece from the 18th century, we are reminded of the importance of preserving our cultural heritage and understanding how our world has evolved over centuries. It is a testament to human curiosity and ingenuity that continues to drive us forward in our quest for knowledge about our planet's diverse landscapes.
