Square, free-standing acrylic block featuring high-quality back-mounted photographic prints. Perfect for a desk, bookcase, or windowsill. Original map by father of epidemiology John Snow showing the clusters of cholera cases in the London epidemic of 1854, drawn and lithographed by Charles Cheffins. John Snow is one of the greatest figures in epidemiology and public health, best known for his work on cholera and in early data visualisation. This is a print of hhis iconic map of London's Soho made during the 1854 cholera epidemic, showing clusters of cases by address. Snow used the map to show that the source of the epidemic was the Broad Street water pump; after the pump's handle was removed, the epidemic died out. This print is in the public domain. The print is also available colour-reversed into white-on-black - view my profile to see it.
