About the Item
Title: 1882 Map of Venezuela, Colombia (New Granada), and Ecuador
This map from 1882 provides a detailed representation of Venezuela, the United States of Colombia (historically referred to as New Granada), and Ecuador, capturing the geographical and political features of northern South America during the late 19th century.
Venezuela is depicted with its extensive coastline along the Caribbean Sea, including significant islands such as Margarita and the Paria Peninsula. The country’s mountain ranges and the expansive plains of the Llanos are clearly shown. The map of Colombia highlights the intricate network of rivers, including the Magdalena and Cauca rivers, as well as the Andes mountain range that defines the country's western regions. Ecuador features prominently with its coastal lowlands, central highlands, and important cities such as Quito and Guayaquil.
The map details natural features, including rivers, mountains, and valleys, as well as political boundaries and major settlements. The cartographic precision provides insight into the historical layout and significance of these regions during this period.
Condition Report: This map is in good condition for its age. The paper has a light patina typical of 19th-century cartography, with minor discoloration along the edges. There are faint fold lines, as expected from its original inclusion in an atlas. The printed details remain sharp and legible, and the color outlining of borders and divisions is vivid and well-preserved.
Tips on How to Frame This Map:
1. Use a classic wooden or metal frame with an antique or dark finish, such as walnut or bronze, to complement the historical nature of the map.
2. Opt for acid-free matting and backing to protect the paper from further aging or discoloration over time.
3. Choose UV-protective glass to shield the map from light exposure and prevent fading.
4. Float-mounting the map can showcase its edges, preserving its authenticity, while a wide mat border provides a clean and elegant presentation.
5. Place the framed map in an area with indirect lighting to avoid glare and maintain its condition.
Recommended Matting Color:
Neutral tones such as cream, beige, or soft gray are ideal to enhance the map's aged aesthetic and intricate details. A subtle pale green mat could evoke the lush landscapes of the Andes, while a light blue mat might reflect the connection to the Caribbean Sea. Avoid bright or overly bold colors that might overpower the historical charm of the map.
