Historical maps from across Norway<\/h1><\/div>\n\n\n\n

We have collected some of Norway’s most beautiful and unique historical maps<\/strong> \u2013 highlights from centuries of Norwegian cartography. Many of these are hand-drawn originals, executed with a precision and wealth of detail that makes them true works of art. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Most of the maps are sourced from the Kartverket archives, in addition to originals on loan from private owners. These have been repro-photographed in collaboration with Fineartprint<\/a> \u2013 one of Norway’s leading studios for art reproduction. The digitization is performed using digital medium-format cameras, specialized optics, and controlled lighting \u2013 the same type of equipment used by leading museums and conservators worldwide. The result is lifelike prints with high precision, closely matching the expression of the original. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We recommend choosing art paper when ordering maps \u2013 this provides a museum-quality print on 100% cotton rag, with exceptionally vivid and lifelike colors. All maps can also be ordered fully framed \u2013 ready for the wall. Our historical wall maps are equally suited for the home, the cabin, or as a focal point in the office. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n
