  • Aaron Bohrod's America Its History

    Today, he's a well appreciated artist, known for his painting and prints, and he's another WPA era artist who painted murals in hard times and became popular in the decades after. This map typifies his flowing style and focus on American history. This is one of his classic maps of the nation touching seemlessly on the history from region to region. With fluid colorful vignettes, he paints the stories of Lewis and Clark to the landing of the Mayflower, and even the more recent events like the 1906 San Francisco quake and fire.

    Condition is good, this map is dissected and laid on canvas for easy folding. Image size is 23 x 33.25, some hand color
