EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of cartographic history - the "Map of Asia, 1902". Created by an unknown artist and featured in The Century Atlas of the World, this map offers a glimpse into the geopolitical landscape of early 20th century Asia. The intricate details captured within this print allow us to explore various regions such as Arabia, Persia, the Indian Subcontinent, Indochina, and the vast Chinese Empire. From its vibrant colors to precise markings denoting countries and bodies of water like the Bay of Bengal and Indian Ocean, every element on this map speaks volumes about its creator's dedication to accuracy. Produced by John Walker & Co Ltd. in London during a time when colonial powers were vying for dominance across continents, this map serves as both an educational tool and a historical artifact. It provides insights into political boundaries that have since evolved or disappeared altogether. With India under British rule and Japan emerging as a formidable power in East Asia at that time, one can't help but marvel at how much has changed over the past century. This print is not just an artistic representation; it holds immense value for researchers studying Asian history or individuals seeking to understand our world's complex tapestry. Preserved by The Print Collector with utmost care and attention to detail from Edinburgh Geographical Institute's original workmanship, this photograph allows us to appreciate both the artistry behind cartography and its significance in documenting our ever-evolving planet.
