STUNNING RESTORED VINTAGE MAPS

FINE ART PRINTS

Firth of Clyde (1933) Fine Art Print
from GBP 39.00

Premium restored vintage map, giclee printed on matte fine art paper.

Using the magic of 3D modelling technology, this map of the Firth of Clyde, including Glasgow, the Isle of Bute and Great Cumbrae, has been restored from a 1933 map by the Edinburgh-based cartographers John Bartholomew and Son Limited. The original print has been scanned using a museum-quality scanner, colour-corrected, and carefully restored to remove damage, while still retaining the feel of the original vintage map. The map has then been combined with satellite data to produce a strikingly realistic relief effect.

The technique used is particularly effective for the corrugated, sea-threaded coastline of this beautiful part of Scotland.
