This striking 1.6m tall frame illustrates a complete panoramic view of the river Thames, from its source in Gloucestershire to its estuary in the North Sea. It brings back to life a folded chromolithograph, steel-engraved map of the Thames originally found in the back of an 1840s atlas.
An extensive restoration has been carried out to remove its twelve fold marks and revive its exquisite colour and details, which include major towns, bridges, railways and roads as well as distances and a list of notable landmarks.
This exceptional map has been using archival grade methods for the finest quality and durability, andit;s mounted in a sustainable wood frame ready for you to hang. As with all our prints, each and every element is hand cut, printed and assembled in Britain to create pictures of distinction with minimal carbon footprint.
