Scarce format of Comparative Mts. & Rivers, 1864

Item Details

Description

Johnsonâ€™s reimagined and re-engraved set of five comparative charts of the Mountains & Rivers of the World, presented in the very uncommon vertical format and organized by continent. Quite a departure from the traditional mountains/rivers charts of the era, Johnson here divides the worldâ€™s mountains and rivers by continentâ€”a bold move that makes the map more accessible from a continental perspective. This apparently was the first such example to consolidate the mountains and rivers of all the continents, each represented individually, on a single chart. An excellent example, with very slight toning to edges. 16.75 x 23.25
