Additional Information Produced and published by noted English engraver and cartographer William Faden, this unique depiction of the Eastern Hemisphere immediately transports the viewer back in time. It creates an indelible link between the present and past. Faden was the Royal Geographer to King George III, and his role was to supply maps to Parliament and the Crown. His self printed North American Atlas, published a decade prior, documented the battles of the American Revolution became one of the most important atlases of the eighteenth century. It included 29 maps with detailed illustrations of battles drawn by eyewitnesses. Faden’s works were noted for their accuracy and detail. With the extensive exploration of the Eastern Hemisphere occurring throughout the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, these maps became more accurate, allowing English residents a glimpse of the world outside of the British isles. The 1780s were a transitional period between the Age of Enlightenment and the Industrial Revolution and saw the development of modern philosophy. The Industrial Revolution saw the abandonment of traditional agrarian society, and the rise of urbanism and city populations began to rise. The rise of republicanism in favor of conventional monarchies was also spurred on by the American Revolution and the fall of the Bastille. King George III reigned during a period of significant military conflict not only in the American Colonies but also against Napoleonic France. Great Britain became the dominant power in Europe under his rule after the French defeat in the Seven Years War in 1763. Our museum quality giclee print comes printed with archival ink on premium heavyweight matte paper. Shipped in a sturdy cardboard tube your print will arrive ready to be framed.
