World Classic Wall Map - Blue - Emerald - Pink - Yellow PAPER

Green/Blue/Yellow/Orange political world map (120 x 66cm / 3’11” x 2’2” approx.) from the Future Mapping Company in their Colourmap series, printed on high quality silk paper or encapsulated, with a carefully chosen palette of glossy colours shown against silver oceans.



Each map uses four well-coordinated glossy colours to present different countries. Subtle relief shading shows the main mountain chains, with major rivers and names of some geographical regions (Sahara, Rocky Mountains, etc.). Country names, boundaries and their capital cities are clearly marked. The maps also show the network of main roads and, rather unnecessarily, selected airports.



Oceans, presented in shades of silver, indicate topography of the sea floor showing main ridges, fracture zones, etc., and include names of basins and plains. The maps also show the names and the boundaries of tectonic plates, indicating the direction of their movement.



Two circular insets present Antarctica and the Polar Regions. Latitude and longitude lines, drawn in white at 15° intervals, clearly stand out against the background colouring. A series of clocks indicate the variation from GMT.



The maps are printed on medium weight, silk-finish paper and each version is also available encapsulated.
