EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a partial map of the Middle East in the 1890s, taken from The Citizens Atlas of the World. Published in London around 1899, this color lithograph offers a glimpse into the intricate cartography of that era. With its rich hues and meticulous details, it transports us back to a time when exploration and discovery were at their peak. The map encompasses various regions including the Mediterranean Sea, Black Sea, Caspian Sea, Turkey, Persia (modern-day Iran), Egypt, Arabia, and Iran. It highlights prominent geographical features such as the Tigris and Euphrates rivers which have played significant roles throughout history. As we delve into this historical artifact preserved within a private collection today, we are reminded of how maps serve as windows to our past. They not only provide navigational guidance but also offer insights into political boundaries and cultural landscapes that have evolved over time. This particular print is an exquisite representation of early 19th-century English cartography. Its vibrant colors bring life to each contour line and symbolize the diversity found within these lands. Whether used for educational purposes or simply admired for its artistic value, this image invites us to explore an era long gone by while appreciating the craftsmanship behind it.
