1864 Johnson's Map of the West Indies and Bermuda

About the Item

Title: 1864 Johnson's Map of the West Indies and Bermuda Description: This is an 1864 map titled "Johnson's West Indies," published by Johnson and Ward. The map provides a detailed representation of the West Indies, including the Greater Antilles and the Lesser Antilles, stretching from Cuba and Jamaica in the northwest to the Leeward and Windward Islands in the southeast. The map also features an inset of the Bermuda Islands, highlighting their geographic position relative to the Caribbean region. The map is notable for its detailed depiction of the island groups, showing important cities, towns, and topographical features. The hand-colored shading distinguishes different colonial territories, reflecting the complex political landscape of the Caribbean during the mid-19th century. The elaborate decorative border adds an artistic touch, typical of maps produced by Johnson and Ward. Condition: The map is in good condition, with light yellowing along the edges, consistent with its age. The central fold, from its original inclusion in an atlas, is evident but well-maintained. The colors are still bright, providing a clear distinction between regions and enhancing the map's visual appeal. There are no significant tears or damage, and the decorative border is intact, making it a valuable piece for both its aesthetic qualities and historical insights into the Caribbean region during the 19th century.
