EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a fascinating piece of history - the "Map of North America, Illustrating the American War of Independence" from 1785. The map, originally published in 1890 as part of "Cassells Illustrated Universal History" provides a visual representation of the American Revolutionary War (1775-1783) or American War of Independence. The map showcases Great Britain and its Thirteen Colonies, which had declared independence in 1776 and were supported by France during this historic conflict. It offers a close-up view that allows us to examine the colonial territories, locations, and borders during this tumultuous period. With its antique charm and monochrome aesthetic, this print transports us back to the 19th century when imperialism was at its height. It serves as a reminder of how nations like Great Britain sought to expand their empires across the world while encountering resistance from those seeking freedom and independence. As we explore this piece, we are invited to reflect on the significance of rebellion and revolution in shaping our modern world.
