Descripción
Descripción:
Art Source International is proud to offer this map from the 1859 edition of Coltons General Atlas. Colton atlases, especially those from the late 1850's, have become increasingly rare. The General Atlas was the first single edition atlas published by the Colton brothers succeeding the expensive two volume Atlas of the World. These maps have the signature * inch Colton border surrounding each map. The Colton firm refused to compromise quality, choosing to compete for sales in the finer quality international market rather than the cheap domestic one. Because of this, all maps were engraved by steel plates rather than by wax engraving which was the most common method used at this time. This map of the Hawaiian Islands, Samoan Islands, New Zealand, Fiji, Tonga, Society Islands, Marquesas Islands and the Calapagos Islands is very detailed. Cities, town, and some topographical features are illustrated. Dates of discoveries are also noted. A very rare and unique map!'This map measures 15 inches by 13 inches. N° de ref. del artículo 59626
