The Story Behind the Print
This twentieth-century nautical chart of the Island of Guam, in the Marianas of the North Pacific Ocean, is numbered 4196 and drawn on a Mercator projection with soundings in fathoms at mean lower low water. The island sits in pale water ringed by fine soundings, with warm olive land. The sheet has the calm, practical look of a working mariner's chart.
Lettered on the sheet are Apra Harbor, Agat Bay, Agana Bay, Tumon Bay, Pago Bay and Talofofo Bay around the coast, with Agana, Dededo, Mount Santa Rosa and Barrigada Hill inland and Cocos Island off the southern tip. Galvez Bank and Santa Rosa Reef lie to the southwest, and four compass roses stand over the open ocean. A block of abbreviations fills the lower right corner under the title.
Printed on 325gsm museum-grade archival matte paper using fade-resistant giclée printing with archival inks, ensuring your vintage nautical chart will maintain its maritime heritage for generations.
Colors may vary slightly between screens and the finished piece — the print will always be richer.
