À propos de cet article

Antique Map of Northern India, 1903, Featuring Provincial Boundaries and Himalayan Detail This antique map, titled "India (Northern Sheet)," was engraved and published in 1903 by W. & A.K. Johnston in Edinburgh and London. It offers an intricate depiction of the northern regions of India at the dawn of the 20th century, capturing the country’s rich geographical and political complexity during a period of British colonial rule. The map is delicately colored in pastel shades to highlight provincial and state boundaries, extending from the lush plains of the Ganges basin to the dramatic heights of the Himalayas. Major cities, rivers, mountain ranges, and railway lines are all clearly marked, offering a fascinating look at a time when India’s colonial infrastructure was rapidly expanding and reshaping the subcontinent. From the culturally vibrant cities of Delhi, Lahore, and Calcutta to the remote passes and valleys of Tibet, this map captures the dynamic interplay between natural beauty and human endeavor. The careful typography and precision of Johnston’s cartography provide a clear and elegant window into this vast and diverse landscape. For collectors, historians, and those with a deep interest in Indian history, this map is more than a decorative piece—it is a reflection of an era of both ambition and change. It highlights the enduring complexity of India’s natural and cultural environments, set against the backdrop of empire and exploration. Condition report: This map is in very good antique condition, with minor foxing and gentle edge toning typical for its age. The colors remain vibrant and the paper is stable and well-preserved. Framing tips: A classic dark wood frame in walnut or mahogany will enhance the warm pastel tones and the historical richness of the map. Use a cream or light tan matting to highlight the delicate linework and create an elegant, timeless focal point for any home, library, or study.
