Old Map of Finland. Engraved and published by William Blaeu Circa 1645
A historical snapshot of this Scandinavian region focusing on the municipality of Uppsala. Originally publish in 1665 by Blaeu, in what is said to be the greatest atlas he produced, Atlas Major, the map covers a vast number of modern day regions and does not hold back on the detail. This beautiful map is brought to life by its colour and elaborate decoration. The ideal gift for anyone with an interest in Finland’s history or a connection to the country.A stunning certified FINE ART PRINT on heavy textured art paper — not a poster
Unlike most online offerings, our maps are produced entirely in-house, not outsourced to print-on-demand or drop-shipping services. This allows complete control over quality while offering better value. Each map begins with a high-resolution original, carefully enhanced and printed to order using archival papers and pigment inks for exceptional clarity, depth, and longevity. Every piece is personally overseen — no map leaves our workshop unless it is of a quality we would be proud to display ourselves.
Paper choice is essential to the authenticity of our maps. We use specially sourced 190gsm paper made in the UK from pure materials and traditionally pressed with natural woollen felts. This process creates a subtle, randomly textured surface that closely resembles an original antique document. Likewise the use of premium quality ink fully saturates the paper, producing remarkable clarity, depth, and historical character. Colour fastness and sharpness will remain good for in excess of 100 years!
