EDITORS COMMENTS
This close-up of a color print, titled "Map of the Pacific Ocean, c1910s" takes us on a journey through time and space. Created by Emery Walker Ltd, this exquisite piece of art showcases the beauty and intricacy of cartography in the early 20th century. The map's vibrant colors immediately draw our attention to its central feature: the vast expanse of the Pacific Ocean. As we explore further, we notice how it skillfully divides Melanesia, Polynesia, and Micronesia into distinct regions with intricate borders. Each island group is represented as a small circle within this expansive blue canvas. The artist's attention to detail becomes evident when we examine the inset sections that provide additional information about specific locations within these Pacific islands. These insets offer glimpses into various cultures and communities thriving amidst this oceanic paradise. As we delve deeper into this historical artifact, it becomes clear that Sir Emery Walker was not only an engraver but also an explorer at heart. Through his meticulous craftsmanship, he invites us to embark on our own voyage across time and space – from his era in the 1910s back to centuries past when these islands were first discovered. This stunning print captures both the scientific precision required for accurate mapping and the artistic flair necessary to evoke wonderment in those who behold it. It serves as a testament to human curiosity about distant lands while reminding us of their interconnectedness within one magnificent body of water – The Pacific Ocean.
