Seas
This collection brings together maps of the great oceans—the Atlantic, Pacific, Indian, Southern, and Arctic Oceans—as well as selected marginal seas such as the Mediterranean, the North Sea, and the Baltic Sea. The assortment includes both historical maps and contemporary depictions, and is aimed at collectors, cartography enthusiasts, and anyone with a passion for maritime history and navigation.
The historical maps show you how past generations of seafarers and cartographers surveyed and depicted the oceans. They document former shipping routes, coastlines, and depth measurements, providing you with insight into the development of nautical cartography as an independent discipline. Many of these works are based on original sources from archives and have been reproduced in high print quality.
The contemporary maps, on the other hand, depict current bathymetric data and geographical features. They are suitable for both practical use and as a decorative element in your living and working spaces.
