A FINE PAIR OF WILLIAM IV CELESTIAL AND TERRESTRIAL GLOBES, by Newton, Son and Berry, Chancery Lane, published 1838, on mahogany stands, with turned baluster centre pillar, with spiral reeded carving on scroll form tripod with circular compass undertier. 38cmFor years, Dutch cartographers had been at the forefront of geographical representation, but the 18th century saw a strong increase in British map production, coinciding with a resurgence of global exploration. With increasing knowledge, the mythological figures and representations of the zodiac that once adorned depictions of the earth gave way to a much more scientific imitation. Thomas Cook’s adventures through the Pacific brought to light the location of several islands, whilst his accompanying astronomers were able to accurately map previously unknown lines of longitude. This ever increasing awareness meant that map makers were forced to continuously update their products, creating a prolific industry.A desire to learn about the world, or at least the desire to appear learned, quickly spread through the wealthier households of Britain, with well-to-do gentlemen purchasing globes to adorn the empty corners of their homes. Behind the supply of these globes was John Newton (1759-1844), who, after being apprenticed to Thomas Bateman, set up his own company c.1780. Newton specialised in globes ranging from small pocket-sized examples to larger standing ones, as seen here, and his legacy allowed the company to flourish well into the 19th century. Despite several name changes, the company maintained its excellence in globe creation, securing a prize at the 1851 Great Exhibition in London’s Crystal Palace.
