Vintage Map of Americas with Italian Frame in Freijo Wood

About the Item

Vintage Map of Americas with Italian Frame in Freijo Wood Step into the world of early 17th-century exploration with "America with those known parts in that unknown world both people and manner of buildings described and by I.S. Ano 1626," a masterpiece crafted by the renowned English cartographer John Speed. This exquisite map, created in 1626, is a testament to the era's evolving understanding of the New World. It holds the distinction of being the first atlas map to depict California as an island, a geographical misconception that persisted for over a century. Speed's work draws upon the earlier maps of Abraham Goos and Henry Briggs, integrating their insights into a richly detailed and historically significant portrayal of the Americas.
