Antique Style World Wall Map 1000 x 575mm

The classic design of muted colours and hill shading give an antique feel to the map. The map features insets of the two polar regions as well as an enlargement of Central Europe. Uniquely, the map also includes explanatory text about the Tropics of Cancer and Capricorn, the Arctic and Antarctic Circles as well as an Analemma which shows which day of the year the sun is directly overhead and how sun time compares to clock time. Voted Best Printed Map from the British Cartographic Society (BCS) who also awarded it the BCS Cup for the best overall map.

The map can come either 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 the map highly durable and fade resistant. The exceptional clarity of 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 by having wooden hang rollers attached top and bottom with a hanging cord on the top roller, so all you have to do is put a hook in the wall. The hang rails come lacquered in a natural timber colour.

Note: Please allow 10 working days to deliver hang railed maps as they need to be attached by our framer.
