Earlier this year, I had the opportunity to create an article/virtual exhibit featuring many of the interesting maps that I digitized over the years during my work for the Stanford University Libraries Digital Production Group (as well as many others from Stanford's collections).
It is called Depicting the Landscape, and is part of Cartographic Symbologies, an exhibit that looks at the symbols, aesthetics, and history found in these fascinating old maps.
Please have a look at it here!
(do also check out the other sections of the exhibit, which my maps colleagues made)
