EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and meticulously detailed reproduction print showcases the Early Coastal Survey Map of Chart of the Harbour of Cork from 1759. Originally surveyed by John Lindsay, this chart was later revised and titled "A New and Correct Chart of the Harbour of Corke" by the Reverend J. Lindsay, who served on His Majesty's Ship Fougueux. The map is a true testament to the skill and dedication required for coastal surveying in that era. It features a large dedication cartouche with the names of Lords Commissioners, emphasizing its official status. An inset map provides a closer look at key areas within Cork Harbour, including Little Island, Barrys Point, Black Rock, Glanmier, and approaches to the city. What sets this print apart is its inclusion of additional elements that enhance our understanding of the region's geography. A continuation chart below offers further detail on Corke Harbour from a smaller scale perspective. Additionally, a coastal profile entitled "A View of Land from Old Head Kinsale to Hawks Rock" adds depth to our appreciation for this stretch along Ireland's southern coast. Whether you are an enthusiast or historian interested in British coastal surveys or simply captivated by maritime history, this stunning reproduction print will transport you back in time to experience firsthand how early charts were crafted with precision and artistry.
