Informazioni sull’articolo

Antique Map of Spain and Portugal, 1903, Featuring Regional Boundaries and Coastal Detail Description: This antique map, titled "Spain & Portugal," was engraved and published in 1903 by W. & A.K. Johnston in Edinburgh and London. It offers a finely detailed and colorful representation of the Iberian Peninsula during the early 20th century, capturing the rich geography and political divisions of Spain and Portugal. The map is meticulously engraved, with distinct pastel shades of green, yellow, pink, and blue highlighting the various provinces and administrative regions. From the rugged coastlines of Galicia and the Bay of Biscay to the sun-drenched shores of Andalusia and the Mediterranean, this map’s detail and artistry bring the entire Iberian Peninsula to life. Major cities like Madrid, Lisbon, Barcelona, and Seville are all clearly marked, alongside an intricate network of railways and roads that exemplify the region’s connectivity during this period of growth and modernization. Of special note are the Balearic Islands—Mallorca, Menorca, and Ibiza—shown in crisp detail off the eastern coast of Spain, adding further maritime interest to this beautiful piece. The map’s precise linework, delicate typography, and refined color palette reflect the exceptional skill of the Johnston cartographic team. For collectors, historians, and those with a passion for Spanish and Portuguese heritage, this map offers a captivating glimpse into the past, encapsulating the cultural richness and natural beauty of the Iberian Peninsula at a time of significant political and social evolution. Condition report: The map is in very good antique condition, with slight age-related toning and minor foxing typical for a piece of this age. The colors remain vibrant and the paper is stable and well-preserved. Framing tips: Choose a classic wooden frame in walnut or mahogany to enhance the warm pastel tones and complement the intricate detail. A cream or off-white matting will further highlight the soft coloring and elegant craftsmanship, making this map a refined and timeless centerpiece in any space.
