This wonderful old map of Palestine was originally published in 1922. It was created by John Bartholomew.
Originally published in "The Times Survey Atlas of the World," this map depicts the mountainous land of Palestine in orographical colour.
The map was published shortly after the First World War, where Palestine was administered by Great Britain on behalf of the League of Nations, a period called "The British Mandate."
Israel isn't mentioned anywhere on the map, though many towns and landmarks of modern Israel can be seen on this map.
This map looks great at all sizes: 12x16in (30.5x41cm), 16x20in (40.5x51cm), 18x24in (45.5x61cm), 24x30in (61x76cm), 32x40in (81.5x102cm), 40x50in (102x127cm), 48x60in (122x153cm) and 56x70in (142x178cm), but it looks even better when printed large.
I can create beautiful, large prints of this map up to 70in (178cm). Please get in touch if you're looking for larger, customised or different framing options.
The model in the listing images is holding the 18x24in (45.5x61cm) version of this map.
The fifth listing image shows an example of my map personalisation service.
Please note the unframed 24x30in (61x76cm) map has white edges around the map. These edges can help you with framing, or if you don’t need them they are very easy to snip off with scissors. All other maps, including the framed maps, look exactly like the listing images.
If you’re looking for something slightly different, another option would be this amazing map of Palestine by John Tallis & Co in 1851.
The locations on this map include: Jaffa, Ashdod, Hebron, Gaza, Amman, Dead Sea, Haifa, Nazareth, Bethlehem, Jericho, Jerusalem, Sea of Galilee and Israel.
Please contact me to check if a certain location, landmark or feature is shown on this map.
This would make a wonderful birthday, Christmas, Father's Day, work leaving or housewarming gift for someone interested in Palestine or someone who has Palestine or Israel close to their heart.
This map is available as a giclée print on acid free archival matte paper, or you can buy it framed. The frame is a nice, simple black frame that suits most aesthetics. Please get in touch if you'd like a different frame colour or material. My frames are glazed with super-clear museum-grade acrylic (perspex/acrylite), which is significantly less reflective than glass, safer, and will always arrive in perfect condition.
