EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print showcases the "Old Map of North America 1851" by John Tallis, a renowned cartographer. Reproduced from an antique original map, this artwork is a testament to the rich history and intricate craftsmanship of cartography in the mid-19th century. The map itself captures a pivotal moment in American history, as it was created shortly after Texas joined the Union. It vividly portrays Texas at near its fullest extent, including Santa Fe but excluding the Green Mountain extension in the Northwest. Upper California has yet to become part of the United States, while Washington remains under British control. Interestingly, a mythical river called Buenaventure can be found in northern California. Surrounding this meticulously detailed map is an exquisitely ornate border that adds to its visual appeal. The border frames several beautiful vignettes depicting various aspects of North American life and culture: Native Americans, a majestic white deer, beavers, Niagara Falls, diamond convoys, an ancient monument in Mexico City, Cossacks on horseback, and an Esquimaux dog-sledge. This reproduction allows us to appreciate both the historical significance and artistic beauty of Tallis' work. Whether you are fascinated by old maps or intrigued by American history during this era of expansion and exploration, this print will transport you back in time to experience North America as it once was – full of uncharted territories and cultural diversity.
