Africa. Arrowsmith, Aaron. A large and historically important map of Africa, 1 November 1802, copper-engraving, dissected into 24 sections, linen-backed, approx. 125cm by 145cm, dedicated 'To The Committee and Members of the British Association for Discovering the Interior parts of Africa', featuring an allegorical cartouche at lower-left. The map has toning, staining & marks, a few very small areas of loss but avoiding the engraved detail, the warm colour is not unattractive This map has been described as "one of the greatest maps ever published. Arrowsmith simply stripped away centuries of accumulated myth, misconception and unsustainable guesswork, and took the mapping of Africa back to the bare bones of substantiated fact, leaving the interior as a blank canvas, a challenge to a new generation of explorers. As a picture, many of his predecessors of a century earlier would not have thought of publishing it, as a statement of intent it raised the standard for geographical accuracy above that practised by the vast majority of his contemporaries" [Mapforum #5, Stanford Libraries]
