Original maritime charts are rare because they were historically treated as top secret documents. Ship captains, who were expected to annotate and even edit their maps as they explored exotic coastlines, had to hand them over upon returning to port. This chart is crisply printed and then hand colored in great detail, enhancing their beauty and intrigue. It's printed and hand colored on acid-free museum quality stock for lasting beauty and integrity. Presented with archival quality matting, the frame is solid mahogany with a gold finished internal filet. Includes professionally finished back with dust cover and hanging wire. Hand colored. Acid-free matting and stock. Mahogany frame. Acrylic glazing. 28 1/2" wide. 23 1/4" high.
