Description
A hand-colored cartographic map of Michigan displays the state's geological formations through layered regions of pink, blue, yellow, and green, bordered by a decorative frame with a legend and detailed topographical markings. The composition balances scientific precision with warm, aged paper tones, creating an intricate portrait of 19th-century geological understanding rendered in the careful linework of vintage surveying craft. For a study, library, or anywhere history and geography inspire curiosity. Built in natural birch or walnut and made to order, with the artwork printed across the door panels and an adjustable shelf inside, on steel legs. A statement piece that carries an independent artist's work into the room.
