Thomson: Antique Map of Central America, 1816
Item Details
Description
  • Map: Spanish North America Southern Part
  • Cartographer: John Thomson
  • Place & Date: Edinburgh / 1816
  • Size: 24 1/4" x 20"
  • Condition: outline color; light overprinting; browning and staining in margins

    In Thomson's large-scale map of Central America, Guatemala is confined to a narrow strip along the Pacific. An enlarged Honduras encompasses the Mosquito Shore, and San Salvador (later El Salvador) has not yet formed. With its beautiful coloring and dramatic topography and coastal shading, this is a map of great aesthetic, as well as historical, appeal.

    John Thomson (1777-1840) was a Scottish cartographer from Edinburgh, best known for his 1817 New General Atlas.
