During the 1600s, there was so much exploring of the Pacific Ocean. Our map reprint is based on a bilingual Dutch/Spanish map that was produced by the Dutch cartographer Hessel Gerritsz for the Dutch East India Company. The map was not intended for navigation per se, but more as a decorative nautical-chart piece for the company's directors. Now you can make our reprint part of your home decor! We have four sizes: 24x18" 32x24" 40x30" 48x36" We've made our reprint available in the original colors & in a stylish inverted blue version that will give any room a stately old-world feel. However, we strongly recommend measuring your intended wall first, due to the cost of the fine art paper & the amount of archival ink involved we cannot offer refunds or exchanges for the wrong size or wrong color chosen. (We do, however, offer refunds & exchanges for post office damage. Please see our shop policies for more details.) Our reprint is adapted from the Library of Congress/World Digital Library's copy of the map. We've made digital corrections where it made sense, but the original map did have some damage. We aren't able to offer framed/matted prints, but we recommend checking your local art/craft supply store and/or the following websites: www.craigframes.com or arttoframe.com. Craig Frames also has an Etsy storefront. We print on Aurora Fine Art with archival inks. The paper has a nice, slight watercolor paper texture feel to it. Your print comes in a heavy-duty mailing tube via USPS priority mail, so you won't have to wait long.
