EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the historically significant "Map of the United States of Mexico, 1847" published by J Disturnall. Serving as an appendix to the Treaty of Guadalupe-Hidalgo, which marked the end of the Mexican American War (1846-1848), this map provides a fascinating glimpse into the geopolitical landscape of that era. Despite its publication date, it intriguingly depicts Upper California and New Mexico as still under Mexican control, even though they had already been ceded to the United States through the treaty. What makes this map particularly noteworthy is its inclusion of precise boundaries and authentic Mexican spellings. It offers a valuable insight into how these regions were perceived at that time in Latin America's history. The meticulous attention to detail on this 19th-century map highlights both its historical significance and artistic value. As we observe this remarkable piece from Universal Images Group (UIG), it reminds us not only of past conflicts but also serves as a testament to evolving borders and shifting political dynamics throughout history. This photograph allows us to appreciate how maps have played a crucial role in documenting territorial changes while reflecting cultural identities
