Manhattan Architectural Map, 1923
Pictorial map of Manhattan, produced in conjunction with the invitation to an exhibit of photographs representing the result of a five month's European pilgrimage made by the Editors of The Architectural Forum. Designed by Daneil K. Wallingford who worked for the Architectural Forum from 1923-1925, this is his first cartographic work before setting his own firm. The map includes decorative borders and land mark vignette at the upper margin and shows streets, landmarks and important buildings. Includes a key in the lower panel that provides a guide to buildings, restaurants, stores, cafes and shops and a decorative compass rose oriented with the north to the upper center.
Our Map Reproductions are handmade in our Los Angeles studio using heavyweight 23 mil Epson Exhibition Satin Canvas. This elegantly textured canvas features a semi-gloss satin surface that is enhanced with protective elastic polymers. Decorative wood is assembled on the top and bottom, with two eye-hooks mounted on the top piece. We also supply a jute rope twine that can be attached between the two eye-hooks to complete the vintage feel of a roll down canvas scroll.
This canvas map is available in multiple sizes which you can select from the drop down menu when ordering. Check out the different sizes placed in a room added to our listing photos.
