A classic historical map showing the routes of Captain Cook's explorations: tracks of Endeavour 1768-1771, Resolution and Adventure 1772-1775, Resolution and Discovery 1776-1780, and Racehorse and Carcass in 1773.
It also shows the routes HMS Racehorse and HMS Carcass attempted to reach the North Pole under Constantine John Phipps (Baron Mulgrave) and Skeffington Lutwidge. Horatio Nelson was a midshipman on the Carcass.
The map can be printed on heavyweight 160 gsm paper or laminated. The paper version is perfect for framing under glass, and the laminated version is exceptionally hard-wearing, as we use a true encapsulation of two pieces of 80-micron gloss laminate.
Alternatively, we can supply this map on 395 gsm HP Professional Matte Canvas using pigment-based inks, making it highly durable and fade-resistant. The exceptional clarity of the printing makes this map a stunning addition to any room, and its high quality means that it will provide years of enjoyment.
The easiest way to hang your canvas map is with wooden hang rollers attached top and bottom. The top roller has a hanging cord, so all you have to do is put a hook on the wall. The hang rails come lacquered in a natural timber colour.
Note: Please allow ten working days to deliver hang-railed maps as they need to be attached by our framer.
