The surrounding counties of Maryland and Virginia extend to the sheet's borders, lending the composition both geographic breadth and a satisfying sense of place within the broader regional landscape.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSamuel Augustus Mitchell and his successors were among the most prolific and widely distributed American map publishers of the nineteenth century, producing atlases and individual maps that balanced scientific accuracy with an accessible, decorative sensibility — works that now occupy a respected place in the history of American publishing and cartographic art. Mitchell maps from this era are consistently sought by collectors drawn to Americana, presidential and federal history, and the visual culture of the Gilded Age.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHandsomely scaled for presentation, this piece suits a library, study, or any interior where a refined sense of American history and place is welcome.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 36 x 29 1\/2 in\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCondition\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis piece is offered as shown.
