Description

This map of California is striking and highly decorative and was taken from the Mitchell Atlas printed during the 1840s. It shows, in high detail, how the area looked at that time, when the first gold was discovered at Sutter’s Mill in Coloma, California, and when hundreds of thousands of people all over America and abroad flocked to the state to get their own nugget of prosperity.
This exquisite vintage high-quality giclee print will be wonderful wall decor in a study, living room, office or a waiting room. With calming yellow hues and historic town names, this map will not just be a decoration, but also a window into a determining moment in USA’s past, the Gold Rush era.
