The map is engraved in the minimalist English style pioneered in the early part of the 19th century, a style which reduced maps' decorative elements to a minimum. Relief is shown by hachure with towns, cities, and major topographical features identified. The map is color coded to distinguish who ruled which regions, with an explanation of the colors used to denote them.John Thomson (1777 - 1841) was a Scottish cartographer, publisher, and bookbinder active in Edinburgh during the early part of the 19th century. Thomson apprenticed under Edinburgh bookbinder Robert Alison. Thomson was one of the leading publishers in the Edinburgh school of cartography, which flourished in the early decades of the 19th century. Thomson and his contemporaries (Pinkerton and Cary) redefined European cartography by abandoning typical 18th century decorative elements such as elaborate title cartouches and fantastic beasts in favor of detail and accuracy.Condition: This superb large format map on heavy paper is in A condition.

The East Indies including more particularly the British Dominions of the Continent of IndiaBy: John BlairDate: 1773 (Published) LondonDimensions: 16.5 x 22 inches (42 x 55.9 cm)This is a highly detailed, antique map of the Indian Subcontinent, the Bay of Bengal, and surrounding territories. The map shows kingdoms, provinces, towns, rivers, lakes, bays, islands, mountain ranges, etc. It extends to Pegu and the tip of Sumatra in the east, the Himalayas and Tibet in the north and includes the Maldives and Persia.One aim of Blair's atlas was to provide such a framework in order to facilitate better understanding of historical annals. In addition to providing chronology the atlas provides copious amounts of historical information divided into categories such as 'Remarkable Events of Sacred History', and 'Remarkable Events of Profane History', all of which are discussed in considerable detail. These divisions are further broken down to enumerate specific people, including kings, statesmen, warriors and men of learning.In addition to his map, Blair strove to provide an accurate chronology and history of the world from its creation to the year of Christ 1779, for it was his belief that too much time and attention were being spent on the study and discussion of historical events without a proper chronological framework in which to place them.Condition This map is on heavy watermarked paper is in A condition.
