About this piece

Old maps make wonderful puzzles: every patch of coastline is different, the lettering gives you anchors, and the sea is never quite one color. This image is drawn from an eighteenth-century sampler map in the public domain — two hemispheres, a compass rose, and borders thick with tiny detail.

At 1,500 pieces it is a long companion rather than a weekend fling. Expect to know the coastlines of the world rather better by the end.
