A New Mapp of the World, Samuel Thornton
This elegantly colored map of the world was originally published around 1702-1707 and was included in the Sea-Atlas: "Containing an Hydrographical Description of most of the sea-coasts of the Known Parts of the world". The map presents the world in western and eastern hemispheres with polar projections of the north and south pole. Illustrations surrounding the map include representations of people in Europe, Asia, America, and Africa.
Each map is produced as a detailed museum quality archive print. This special printing process is known as Giclee (zhee-CLAY) and is commonly used to produce very high quality fine art prints. Printed on Archive Paper, Luster Photo Paper, or Matte Canvas.
Map print ships rolled up in a durable cardboard tube. Frame is not included.

*If planning to have the canvas stretched on to a wood frame we recommend the option with a 2" margin. Map dimensions will be 4" smaller due to margins.* The outer 2" area of the map is mirrored as a border for wrapping around a frame.
Canvas on Wood Rails - A canvas print is mounted to wooden hanging rails placed along the top and bottom of the map. Ready to hang on the wall using the attached hanging cord. Wood rails feature a natural finish.
