This original 19th-century double-sided map of Europe from around 1890 is printed on cream paper using chromolithography printing, displaying a multicolour political and physical layout with a latitude longitude grid, national borders, and an inset distance scale. The sheet presents a vertical centre fold, light age-related toning, minor spotting, and some edge wear, with legible text and defined lines set within a rectangular black border. The paper measures 27 cm high by 31 cm wide and 0.02 cm deep. Suitable for a gentleman's library, the map fits well placed above a sideboard in a study or home office when mounted and framed under glass.

FAQs

A Victorian lithographic map is a printed geographical chart produced during the late nineteenth century using chromolithography or colour printing techniques to depict political and physical boundaries.

These maps were typically printed on woven paper stock using oil-based inks applied via lithographic stones or plates, frequently issued as individual atlas leaves.

Authentic late nineteenth-century maps display age toning, natural paper oxidisation, fine border lines, and period-appropriate typography along with publisher imprints.

Frame the paper map with a neutral mount in a clean wooden or gilded frame, hanging it above a sideboard, desk, or as part of a gallery wall.

Keep paper maps framed under UV-filtering glass with acid-free backing materials, away from damp conditions, direct sunlight, and excessive humidity.
