Genuine Antique Hand Colored Map

1864

Maker: Johnson and Ward.

Antique hand colored comparative map, showing the comparative lengths of rivers and heights of mountains for each continent (except Australia). At this time Mount Everest's height had been calculated and the source of the Nile had been identified but was currently under dispute. Lake Victoria was found by Europeans in 1858 but not confirmed as the source of the Nile until 1875. Good antique condition with some spots and slight seam separation that has been repaired, as well as light overall toning. Matted. Approx. 23" x 17" to the neatline. Priced as-is.
