{"product_id":"vintage-map-of-athens-region-vineyards-and-olive-cultivation-1875","title":"Vintage map of Athens region, vineyards and olive cultivation, 1875","description":"\u003cp data-start=\"0\" data-end=\"496\"\u003eThis finely detailed historical map titled “Map Showing the Country Twelve Miles Round Athens” presents a carefully rendered view of the landscape surrounding the ancient city of Athens. Produced in a classical cartographic style, the map illustrates the geography, agricultural areas, and historic landmarks within roughly a twelve-mile radius of the city, offering a visual interpretation of the region as it was understood through classical scholarship and early modern mapping traditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"498\" data-end=\"1184\"\u003eAt the center of the composition lies Athens, prominently marked alongside the Acropolis and the surrounding urban area. From this focal point, a network of roads radiates outward toward surrounding towns, villages, and ancient sites. The map carefully identifies historic districts such as Cecropia, Acharnae, Gargettus, and Kephisia, many of which were well known in classical Greek history. The terrain is delicately illustrated with shaded mountain ranges and rolling hills, including the notable Hymettus Mountains to the southeast and Mount Pentelicus to the northeast, both of which played significant roles in ancient Athenian life and resources.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1186\" data-end=\"1690\"\u003eTo the west, the Bay of Eleusis and the island of Salamis are depicted with detailed coastlines and coastal settlements, reflecting their importance in both mythology and historical events such as the famous naval battles of antiquity. Agricultural areas are also clearly indicated across the landscape. Distinct colored markings identify regions of vineyards and olive groves, highlighting the long-standing agricultural traditions that supported the economy of the Athenian countryside.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1692\" data-end=\"2065\"\u003eThe map’s aesthetic combines precision with elegance. Soft hand-colored sections in muted greens and reds differentiate land uses and cultivated zones, while finely engraved place names and boundaries maintain clarity throughout the composition. A simple compass rose and scale of English miles provide orientation and measurement, reinforcing the map’s functional purpose.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2067\" data-end=\"2413\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\"\u003ePublished in London by James L. Denman of Piccadilly, the map reflects the nineteenth-century fascination with classical geography and archaeology. Today it stands as both an informative historical document and an attractive decorative piece, illustrating the cultural landscape surrounding one of the world’s most influential ancient cities.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"PrintsXXL","offers":[{"title":"canvas \/ 23''x24''(58x61)","offer_id":52677323817226,"sku":"195315","price":59.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"canvas \/ 27''x29''(68x73)","offer_id":52677323849994,"sku":"195315","price":67.83,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"canvas \/ 31''x33''(78x83)","offer_id":52677323882762,"sku":"195315","price":88.06,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"canvas \/ 35''x37''(88x93)","offer_id":52677323915530,"sku":"195315","price":103.53,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"canvas \/ 39''x41''(98x104)","offer_id":52677323948298,"sku":"195315","price":110.67,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"canvas \/ 41''x43''(104x110)","offer_id":52677323981066,"sku":"195315","price":121.38,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"canvas \/ 49''x52''(124x131)","offer_id":52677324013834,"sku":"195315","price":141.61,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"canvas \/ 54''x57''(138x146)","offer_id":52677324046602,"sku":"195315","price":170.17,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"canvas \/ 59''x62''(149x158)","offer_id":52677324079370,"sku":"195315","price":193.97,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"matte photo paper \/ 19''x20''(48x51)","offer_id":52677324112138,"sku":"195315","price":53.55,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"matte photo paper \/ 23''x24''(58x61)","offer_id":52677324144906,"sku":"195315","price":59.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"matte photo paper \/ 27''x29''(68x73)","offer_id":52677324177674,"sku":"195315","price":65.45,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"matte photo paper \/ 31''x33''(78x83)","offer_id":52677324210442,"sku":"195315","price":83.3,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"matte photo paper \/ 35''x37''(88x93)","offer_id":52677324243210,"sku":"195315","price":97.58,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"matte photo paper \/ 39''x41''(98x104)","offer_id":52677324275978,"sku":"195315","price":102.34,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"matte photo paper \/ 41''x43''(104x110)","offer_id":52677324308746,"sku":"195315","price":111.86,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"matte photo paper \/ 49''x52''(124x131)","offer_id":52677324341514,"sku":"195315","price":126.14,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"matte photo paper \/ 54''x57''(138x146)","offer_id":52677324374282,"sku":"195315","price":149.94,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"matte photo paper \/ 59''x62''(149x158)","offer_id":52677324407050,"sku":"195315","price":170.17,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"fine art photo paper \/ 19''x20''(48x51)","offer_id":52677324439818,"sku":"195315","price":49.98,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"fine art photo paper \/ 23''x24''(58x61)","offer_id":52677324472586,"sku":"195315","price":55.93,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"fine art photo paper \/ 27''x29''(68x73)","offer_id":52677324505354,"sku":"195315","price":61.88,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"fine art photo paper \/ 31''x33''(78x83)","offer_id":52677324538122,"sku":"195315","price":79.73,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"fine art photo paper \/ 35''x37''(88x93)","offer_id":52677324570890,"sku":"195315","price":94.01,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"fine art photo paper \/ 39''x41''(98x104)","offer_id":52677324603658,"sku":"195315","price":98.77,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"fine art photo paper \/ 41''x43''(104x110)","offer_id":52677324636426,"sku":"195315","price":108.29,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"fine art photo paper \/ 49''x52''(124x131)","offer_id":52677324669194,"sku":"195315","price":122.57,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"fine art photo paper \/ 54''x57''(138x146)","offer_id":52677324701962,"sku":"195315","price":146.37,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"fine art photo paper \/ 59''x62''(149x158)","offer_id":52677324734730,"sku":"195315","price":166.6,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0656\/9656\/3466\/files\/195315.jpg?v=1772889075","url":"https:\/\/printsxxl.com\/es\/products\/vintage-map-of-athens-region-vineyards-and-olive-cultivation-1875","provider":"PrintsXXL","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
