EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a Map of the Americas, circa 1821. Created by an English School in the 19th century, this handcoloured copperplate engraving offers a glimpse into the geographical landscape of that era. The map encompasses various regions including Labrador, Canada, the United States, Louisiana, Mexico, Brazil, Amazonia and Paraguay. Originally featured in Rev. Isaac Taylor's book "Scenes in America" this map was designed to entertain and educate young readers who preferred to explore from the comfort of their homes. Published by John Harris in London in 1821, it serves as a testament to both historical accuracy and artistic craftsmanship. The intricate details on this print highlight not only the physical features but also provide insight into cultural aspects such as travel routes and traditional costumes prevalent at that time. This visual representation allows us to delve into history while appreciating its aesthetic value. As we observe this piece closely, it becomes evident how vast and diverse the Western Hemisphere truly is. From Canadian wildernesses to South American rainforests; from bustling cities like New Orleans to remote Amazonian territories – each region holds its own unique charm within this comprehensive depiction. Preserved by Florilegius for future generations' admiration and study purposes only - without any commercial intent - let us appreciate this remarkable artwork as a window into our past and an homage to those who ventured across these lands centuries ago.
