Antique World Map - Historical Cartography from the 1800s #3869975 (License: Personal Use)

This antique world map, likely from the mid-to-late 1800s, displays hand-colored continents-including pink for Africa, green for Australia, and yellow for Asia-with intricate topographic shading and latitude/longitude grids. Notable features include labeled oceans (e.g., “Southern Ocean”), colonial-era territorial markings, and ornamental script typography typical of Victorian-era cartography. The aged parchment background and fine linework suggest it was produced for educational or diplomatic use.
