EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the North Polar Chart from 1902, a remarkable creation by an unknown artist. The chart beautifully depicts the Arctic Circle, offering a glimpse into the vast and icy expanse of the Arctic Ocean. This historical artifact was featured in The Century Atlas of the World, published by John Walker & Co in London during that era. The vibrant colors used in this print bring to life various countries and regions surrounding the North Pole. From Canada to Russia, each country is clearly marked on this map, allowing viewers to appreciate their geographical locations within this remote part of our planet. Notably, Greenland stands out with its distinct shape and position on this chart. Created by Edinburgh Geographical Institute, this map serves as both an educational tool and a testament to human curiosity about unexplored territories. It offers valuable insights into early 20th-century geography while igniting our imagination about what lies beyond these icy waters. Preserved meticulously by The Print Collector - not for commercial use - this photograph captures a moment frozen in time. As we gaze upon it today, we are reminded of humanity's relentless pursuit of knowledge and exploration throughout history.
