Description
A detailed cartographic rendering of Louisville, Kentucky stretches across cream-colored paper with fine linear networks of streets, blocks, and geographical features rendered in black ink. The composition captures the city's layout as it existed in 1873, with a compass rose marking cardinal directions and notations indicating key landmarks, all executed in the precise, utilitarian style characteristic of 19th-century survey maps. Crafted from durable canvas-like poly-poplin and made to order, double-stitched with a cotton webbing strap. The everyday haul, from groceries to the beach, carrying an independent artist's work.
