Antarctica | Map from 1904 | Vintage Print
The 1904 map "The Antarctic Regions" (Edward Stanford Ltd.) depicts the Antarctic continent and the surrounding areas of the Southern Hemisphere in detailed lithographic representation. It highlights the structure of ice and rock areas and provides a clear geographical overview through its labels.
Red lines mark the routes of early Antarctic expeditions, supplemented by the names of the explorers and dates of their voyages. A scale and legend provide additional information on distances and features. As a historical document from the early 20th century, the map reflects the "Age of Discovery" and shows the knowledge and spirit of adventure of the time – especially given that Antarctica was only systematically explored towards the end of the 19th century.
Historical maps show traces of time and use, the intensity and nature of which vary depending on the map and its purpose. The offered print is a reproduction.
