EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning engraving from the 10th edition of Encyclopaedia Britannica showcases a detailed Map of Connecticut and Rhode Island circa 1900. The intricate cartography, done in a 19th-century style, highlights the coastline, boundaries, and geographical features of these two New England states.
The inclusion of an inset featuring Newport adds to the historical charm of this piece, offering a glimpse into the past exploration and navigation of this region. The map captures the essence of old-fashioned navigational equipment and Western script used during that era.
As you study this print, you can almost imagine sailors using it for guidance as they traverse Long Island Sound and the Atlantic Ocean. The absence of people in the image allows you to focus solely on the physical geography and state borders depicted with precision.
This illustration serves as a reminder of how maps were once essential tools for understanding our world before modern technology made them accessible at our fingertips. It is a testament to both artistry and functionality, showcasing the beauty found in even the most practical objects like maps.
