Historical maps of the world from the 18th century are a fascinating insight into the perception of geography and awareness of the world at that time. The 1723 map was created at a time when geographical knowledge was increasingly limited, and many regions of the world remained unknown. Historical maps from the time often included Europe, Asia, Africa, and the Americas, but with limited information about the interior of these continents. Oceans and seas were usually depicted as part of this map, although the exact details were often imprecise or imperfect. Prevailing color of this fine art print is brown and its shape is long.
