John George Bartholomew — British Isles Geology Map (1942) | Vintage Atlas Print

John George Bartholomew (1860–1920) founded the great Edinburgh cartographic tradition that bears his name — the Bartholomew firm whose atlases set the standard for British mapmaking for over a century. This geological map of the British Isles, printed by the Edinburgh Geographical Institute, is a masterpiece of thematic cartography: the ancient bones of Britain and Ireland rendered in a painterly mosaic of rose, ochre, sage, and violet, each hue keyed to the rock beneath. Part science, part abstract composition, it rewards close reading and looks remarkable on a wall.Printed as a museum-grade giclée on Hahnemühle fine art paper using 12-ink archival pigment printing.
