World Map 1708
This French 1708 world map was called 'Geo-Hydrographique' for presenting the two hemispheres in a manner that describes both the terrestrial and aquatic globe. It shows the Empires, Monarchies, Kingdoms, Republics, and States. It was created by the Sr. Sanson, cartographer of the Sun King Louis XIV, based on observations from the academy of sciences, and presented to the Dauphin, son and heir of Louis XIV.

This piece is printed and assembled in our downtown Los Angeles studio using our 12 color Canon Pro 4100 large format printer on Epson Exhibition Satin Canvas, a heavyweight 23 mil semi-gloss textured canvas that is enhanced with protective elastic polymers. Decorative wood, stained and varnished is added on the top and bottom, with two eye-hooks mounted on the top piece for hanging. We also supply a jute rope twine that can be attached between the two eye-hooks to complete the vintage feel of a roll down canvas scroll.
