Description
A hand-colored cartographic rendering of Costa Rica from 1903 displays the country's topography in soft earth tones of cream, tan, sage green, and pale blue, with mountain ranges depicted through delicate shading and coastal waters rendered in muted aquamarine. The composition centers the elongated nation within an ornamental border, with a legend and cartographic notes positioned in the upper right, evoking the scholarly precision and romantic sensibility of early 20th-century mapmaking. Printed on smooth white card stock and made to order, artwork on the front, blank inside, envelopes included in every set. A handwritten note that arrives as an independent artist's work.
