EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a Map of India from the year 1847, taken from "The History of China and India" by Miss Corner. The intricate engraving highlights the vastness and diversity of this ancient land during the 19th century. The map encompasses not only present-day India but also Pakistan, Tibet, Sri Lanka (then known as Ceylon), and various coastal regions along the Indian Ocean and Bay of Bengal. Created by an unknown artist, this monochrome illustration provides a glimpse into the British Empire's influence in India at that time. It serves as a historical artifact depicting the geographical boundaries and locations within Hindoostan. The names Julia Corner, Solomon Lovechild, Thomas Parley, among others mentioned in association with this print add an intriguing layer to its provenance. The level of detail captured in this print is remarkable; it allows viewers to explore different regions' topography and understand their significance within Indian history. Whether used for educational purposes or simply admired for its aesthetic appeal, this Map of India offers a window into a bygone era when colonial powers were shaping nations across continents. As we gaze upon this vintage treasure brought to us by Heritage Images, we are reminded of how maps can transcend time—connecting us to our past while guiding us towards an enlightened future.
