À propos de cet article

Title: Antique Map of Asia, 1903, with Intricate Provincial Boundaries and Coastal Features Description: This antique map, titled "Asia," was engraved and published in 1903 by the renowned W. & A.K. Johnston firm in Edinburgh and London. It offers a stunningly detailed portrayal of the vast and diverse continent of Asia, capturing the geographical and political landscapes of an era marked by imperial ambition and rapid modernization. Hand-colored in soft pastel shades of pink, yellow, green, and blue, the map elegantly outlines the provinces, empires, and kingdoms that dominated Asia at the start of the 20th century. From the Russian Far East and Siberia in the north to the bustling centers of India, China, and Japan, this map reflects the breadth and complexity of a region that has always been at the crossroads of civilizations. The map highlights key geographical features such as the Himalayas, the vast deserts of Central Asia, and the river systems of China and India. It also captures the islands of Southeast Asia and the maritime networks that connected these cultures to the wider world. For collectors, historians, and those with an interest in Asian history and culture, this map is more than a decorative piece—it is a window into a continent on the brink of transformation. It reflects the power of empires like the Russian, Chinese, Ottoman, and British, alongside the vibrant diversity of cultures that have shaped Asia’s destiny for centuries. Condition report: This map is in very good antique condition, with minor age-related foxing and gentle toning at the edges consistent with its age. The colors remain vibrant and the paper stable and well-preserved. Folding line as issued. Framing tips: A classic wooden frame in walnut or cherry will enhance the warm pastel colors and historical charm of this map. Use a cream or off-white matting to highlight the delicate detailing and elegant linework, creating a refined focal point perfect for any home, study, or office.
