The print
This is a high-quality print of a hand-drawn map on premium Archival Matte Paper - a thick, neutral white paper (230g, like card stock) with a smooth surface.
My frames
My frames are made from high-quality, solid wood with a walnut veneer. By using veneers, I can provide high-quality, authentic wood frames while keeping costs down.
Each frame is 1 1/4" x 3/4":
Width: 1.25"
Depth: 0.75"
Rabbet: 0.50"
★ My maps come without glazing (clear covering). This way, they're visible in all lighting conditions and can be photographed from any angle without glare.
Note from the artist
This is the silhouette version of the Fort Peck Lake map. With this one, I removed all the roads, rivers, coulees, and draws that are included on the other two. This one is also more of a piece of artwork than a map.
Once the railroads reached Montana in 1880, commercial and passenger boat traffic up the Missouri River slowed. During the Great Depression in 1933, President Roosevelt constructed a dam along the Missouri River in Montana for flood control and job creation. The result is the iconic shape you see today.
Fort Peck Lake lies in a 1.1 million-acre (445,154-hectare) protected natural region called the Charles M. Russell National Wildlife Refuge – the remnants of a wild prairie habitat that once covered a quarter of the United States. This area has remained almost undisturbed since the Lewis and Clark expedition passed through in 1805.
Unlike the other maps, this one comes in a mahogany frame.
