Arctic Exploration: An Original Map of the North Circumpolar Regions, 1882
Located in Langweer, NL
This map, extracted from the 1882 atlas by Blackie & Son, presents the North Circumpolar Regions in a projection centered on the North Pole, offering a unique view of the Arctic territories. The map's radial lines emanate from the pole, focusing on the northernmost parts of continents and the intricate archipelagos that are scattered across the Arctic Ocean.
The territories of Canada, Greenland, Northern Europe, Russia, and the northern extremities of Asia are portrayed with careful detail, highlighting the geography known to Victorian explorers. Notably, the map's color palette is subdued, with the cold regions depicted in pale hues, while coastlines and political boundaries are traced in warmer tones, providing a stark contrast that emphasizes the frigid environment.
The map likely served purposes both educational and navigational, capturing the extent of polar exploration at the time. Names of seas, straits, and islands honor explorers and patrons of the age of Arctic exploration, and the map also hints at the incomplete knowledge of the era, with some areas less detailed than others, reflecting the limits of exploration and cartographic knowledge of the Arctic region at that time.
Moreover, the map includes longitudinal and latitudinal markers, which would have been crucial for navigation and expedition planning. The inclusion of such detail illustrates the growing interest in polar exploration during the late 19th century...
