School Map - Scandinavian Countries
Description
Explore the lands of the North with this faithful reissue of map no. 152 bis from the Henri Varon Collection (Librairie Armand Colin). Designed by G. Chabot, a professor at the Sorbonne, this cartographic work offers a masterful synthesis of Norway, Sweden, Finland, and Denmark, capturing the essence of Northern Europe through the conventions of mid-20th-century school geography.
The map presents a geographical and economic analysis of great richness. The eye traverses the Scandinavian Alps and the rugged fjords of the Norwegian coast, while identifying the vast areas of Finnish forests and the agricultural plains of Denmark. Historically fascinating, it lists the resources that shaped the development of these nations: the iron deposits of Kiruna, the metallurgical centers, the strategic fishing ports for herring and cod, and even the whaling grounds. An inset dedicated to Iceland completes this overview, showing the horse and sheep breeding areas on this volcanic land.
Combining nostalgia and durability, this map is printed on a high-quality flexible canvas. This modern material guarantees exceptional tear resistance while preserving the matte finish and nuanced colors—from forest greens to the oranges of cultivated areas—typical of period documents. For immediate installation, it is equipped with two sturdy metal eyelets at the top. Perfect for an office, library, or Scandinavian-style living room, this piece transforms a historical educational tool into an elegant and informative decorative object.
