About this work

A hand-coloured geological map of the world shows continents shaded in orange, green, grey and pink to mark rock formations, with coral reef regions along the equator. Inset engravings depict a volcanic island emitting smoke, a basalt formation and a columnar volcanic island, with ships and icebergs in the polar corners. The print is credited to John Emslie and dated 1850.
