Map of Southern South America – Richly Detailed Engraving by K.Johnston, 1903

About the Item

Title (80 characters, keyword-first): Map of Southern South America – Richly Detailed Engraving by Keith Johnston, 1903 Description: This elegant map titled "South America: Southern Sheet" was created by Keith Johnston, F.R.G.S., and published by W. & A.K. Johnston, Limited, Edinburgh & London, in 1903. It offers a meticulous and visually engaging depiction of the southern part of the South American continent, encompassing Argentina, Chile, Uruguay, and parts of Paraguay and southern Brazil. The map captures key features such as the rugged Andes mountain range running along Chile’s border, the vast Pampas of Argentina, and the intricate coastline dotted with islands and inlets. In the southern reaches, the map details the archipelagos of Tierra del Fuego and the isolated Falkland Islands and South Georgia Island in the South Atlantic. Rich with period-accurate details, the map includes rivers, mountain ranges, cities, and transportation routes. Its finely engraved lines and gentle color shading bring the topography and political boundaries to life, offering a striking visual representation of early 20th-century South America. Condition-wise, the map is in excellent shape for its age, with clear printing, vibrant colors, and minimal signs of handling or foxing. This map’s historical and geographical significance makes it a prized addition to any collection. For framing, consider using a warm-toned wooden frame or a dark brown frame to complement the map’s elegant color scheme, with a neutral mat to highlight the fine engravings. Whether displayed in a study, library, or office, this map is a captivating window into the landscapes and political divisions of South America at the dawn of the 20th century.
