Additional Information Produced and published by one of the most prolific cartographers of the form, Henry Wellge, this stunning depiction of Santa Fe shows the iconic city in a period of significant transformation and growth. Wellge's distinctive style and ornate flourishes are immediately recognizable, transporting the viewer back in time creating an indelible bond between the past and present. Wellge was among a group of cartographers responsible for producing more than half of the panoramic maps of towns and cities across the United States. These unique maps were created to promote economic opportunities, prominent civic buildings, and natural attractions. Spanish explorers first settled in Santa Fe as early as the sixteenth century and would control much of the region until the United States declared war on Mexico in 1846. Following the conclusion of the Mexican-American War, the Treaty of Guadalupe-Hidalgo ceded the land to the United States, though it would remain a territory until achieving statehood in 1914. Upon becoming an official American state, Santa Fe was named the Capital of New Mexico. This map was published two years after Santa Fe was given rail access via a branch line to Lamy, New Mexico, some eighteen miles to the South. This is an authentic piece of American cartographical history that captures this jewel of the Southwest in a period of significant economic, cultural, and political transformation, and the nation neared the turn of the twentieth century. The late nineteenth century saw Santa Fe becoming a modern city and gateway to the West. Our museum quality giclee print comes printed with archival ink on premium heavyweight matte paper. Shipped in a sturdy cardboard tube your print will arrive ready to be framed. This eye-catching vintage map reproduction print makes the perfect gift for anyone that loves history and imagery.
