Very good. Manuscript pen and watercolors on blindstamped Bristol Board. Exhibits toning, else excellent for this kind. Size 16 x 21 Inches. A very attractive c. 1865 patriotic manuscript schoolboy map of the world executed by George A. Knight, in or about 1865. The map covers the world on a double-hemisphere projection, with geographical features corresponding very closely to the separate maps of the Eastern and Western Hemispheres printed in Mitchell's Intermediate Atlas , specifically, the 1865 editions. An Extraordinary Example of a 'Schoolgirl' map The map is meticulously drawn, inked, and colored. The border is \\finely executed with a clear, fine-lined botanical motif embellished with four cornucopias and naming three of the cardinal directions. In place of 'north,' above map's title is a variation on the theme of the Great Seal of the United States: a Bald Eagle, with olive branches and arrows astride a shield with the Stars and Stripes, and the 'E Pluribus Unum' motto on a banner held in its beak. The Mapmaker The creator of this map, George A. Knight, gives neither his age nor his home state, but the combination of the choice of iconography, the evidence of some affluence indicated by the quality Reynold's Bristol Board paper (Imported from Great Britain) and the access to printed maps all point to young Mr. Knight being a citizen of one of the New England or Mid-Atlantic states. While the map itself does not contain place names, geographical features are clearly and elegantly delineated. The 'ripple' coastline effects, minimally hachured mountains, and stippled desert areas are clear, communicative, and show the map's connection to its Mitchell source. Several distinctive geographical features also tie it to the specific Mitchell maps, and help date the piece. The Appalachian Mountains Among the finely-rendered mountain ranges on this map are the Appalachians, (which here extend well into Maine). While these mountains do not appear on the 1851 Mitchell Western Hemisphere , the 1865 edition does include them, in a form consistent with what we see here. Antarctica: Enderby Land and Kemp Land The map shows only portions of the Antarctic coastline as does the Mitchell. The 1851 edition of the Mitchell Eastern Hemisphere shows Enderby Land on the Antarctic Circle, but the Kemp Land to the east of Enderby Land is not there: we see it on the 1865, and both of these pieces of coastline appear on this manuscript map. Australia: Lake Torrens A feature on this map - shared on Mitchell's Eastern Hemisphere, but not the Mitchell double-hemisphere world - is a curious crescent-shaped body of water in Southern Australia. This is Lake Torrens, an ephemeral endorheic salt lake in central South Australia. Its first sighting by a European was only 1839, and while it appeared on a number of maps its depiction on them is inconsistent, a problem not aided by Lake Torrens' tendency to change in extent, shape, and even existence. The distinctive, upside-down 'U' shape appearing here is one of the visual elements that ties this map to Mitchell's cartography in general, and his two separate hemisphere maps in particular. Africa: Lakes Nyasa, Nyanza, and Tanganyika Just south of the equator in Eastern Africa are shown three lakes. These correspond to Nyasa, Nyanza, and Tanganyika as they are presented in the 1865 Mitchell Eastern Hemisphere. This is at odds with the contemporaneous Mitchell world map, which shows only one large lake in that position. The 1851 edition of the Eastern Hemisphere does not show these, only one 'Lake Maravi,' likely an early iteration of what David Livingstone would name Lake Nyasa in 1859. Lake Tanganyika and Lake Nyanza - that is to say, Lake Victoria - had first been encountered by European explorers, the British explorers Richard Burton and John Speke, in 1858, and could not have appeared on the earlier iteration of the Mitchell. 'Schoolgirl' and 'Schoolboy' Maps While the use of mapmaking in teaching is first.
