Henry David Thoreau's Concord, Mass., circa July 4, 1845 (map poster) - John Roman [1]

Item Number: 338
Time Left: CLOSED
Description
A map of Henry David Thoreau's world. This historically-accurate bird's-eye-view of Concord, Mass. circa 1845 is based on the popular 19th-century panoramic city views of that era (no such view having been produced of Concord). The 20 x 30 inch poster is on heavy stock and is printed to replicate the authentic style and look of a lithographic map. The artist and the Thoreau Society won two national art awards for this work upon its publication in 2006. A "fact sheet" accompanies the print and details the historic specifics within the map. In addition, the 2007 issue of the Concord Saunterer featured a 60-page essay by artist John Roman on his process and his inspiration for "Mapping Thoreau's World."
