Many
world map images
are created to resemble globes. As such, these works are rounded and often show two images, one for each hemisphere. These
globe images
are popular because they show a more realistic view of the world. These works are also highly diverse in execution and styles range from highly detailed and decorative works like 'Map of the World(antique style) to fairly plain, informational images like 'Closeup of a World Map, 1626' by John Speed.
One of the most fascinating aspects of
world maps
for art and cartography enthusiasts are the differences between
antique maps
and modern maps. These works vary considerably and it's fascinating to study how many
antique maps
are missing areas that modern audiences take for granted. An example of this can be seen in the
globe image
, 'New World Map, 1676' by Pieter Goos.
World maps
are meant to inform and ignite the imagination at the same time. These
geographic images
show the world as a possibility, something that is so much bigger than the limited perspective that people see each day. As such, many
world map fine art
focus on themes of adventure and mystery. This is accomplished through a variety of means, including adding imagery and making the map appear older than it is, as seen in 'World Map' Nicholas Visscher.
