Map made in the 19th century about the North American colonies.

John Bartholomew was a Scottish cartographer in the XIX century. The map shows what the North American colonies looked like in 1715 along with erroneous geographic notions of the period.

Obsessed by the sheer number of sea monsters on this map of Africa that I came across! This is only 1/4 of it, and look at how many the cartographer put in!!! Convinced this expanse of ocean beyond Madagascar was included just so he could put in the sea monsters.

And lots of close-ups, because you need to see them!!!

And a link to the source (Il disegno della geografia moderna de tutta la parte dell'Africa, Giacomo Gastaldi, 1564) so you can all have fun seeing them up close and personal too: https://www.digitale-sammlungen.de/en/view/bsb00092152?page=,1

Just out of curiosity, If I decided to post my combination of every map of Narnia and Adjoining Lands + the Eastern Sea, how many people would be interested in seeing it, because I would like to share it because I have spent a lot of time on it. It is not yet finished and won’t be for a few months but when it is…
