Christopher Wilcox: C. 1900 Metallic Leaf City Maps - New York Silver
Early 20th-century maps of major American cities are detailed and reproduced as shimmering, metallic works of art. The image from the original lithograph is silkscreened in black ink onto a ground of hand-applied gold or silver leaf. The result is an aesthetic object that doubles as a fascinating historical study.
