About the Item

Title: Antique Australia New Zealand Map Wall Art – Rand McNally Atlas, c.1888 Description: This finely colored antique atlas map presents Australia in full, accompanied by inset maps of New Zealand, Tasmania, and Sydney Harbour. The composition is both informative and highly decorative, balancing dense geographic detail with a calm, harmonious color palette that reads beautifully on the wall. On the reverse a map of Upper Nubia and Habesh or Abyssinia. Published by Rand, McNally Co. in the late 19th to early 20th century, the map reflects the height of classical atlas cartography. Soft pastel color washes distinguish colonial boundaries and regions, while finely engraved coastlines, rivers, and place names add texture and depth. The surrounding seas are animated with delicate bathymetric lines, giving the map a sense of movement and scale. Australia dominates the sheet with a strong, centered presence, while the carefully placed insets provide visual rhythm and additional points of interest. The overall effect is elegant rather than technical, making this an excellent choice for interior decoration as well as for collectors of historical maps. Printed on original period atlas paper, the sheet retains the authentic surface and tone expected of a genuine antique map. Once framed, it becomes a striking focal point for a study, library, office, or travel-inspired interior. Condition report: Light age toning consistent with age. Minor edge wear and small handling marks from original atlas binding. Overall clean and well preserved. Framing tips: Particularly effective in a walnut, light oak, or black frame with an ivory or soft sand-colored mat. Museum glass recommended. Technique: Color lithograph Maker: Rand, McNally Co., United States, late 19th–early 20th century Keywords: antique australia map, australia wall art, new zealand antique map, rand mcnally map, antique atlas map, vintage australia print, colonial australia map, travel wall art, world map decor, historical geography print
