Notes: From: National Geographic Magazine Notes: "Painted in quaint Sixteenth Century style, this chart of the Western Hemisphere suggests the imagination that lounched intrepid explorees to the ends of the earth, yet records accurately the boundaries of to-day. On it are traced the paths, plowed through virgin seas and blazed across unknown continents, that gave to man a realization of the true magnitude of his world." "Fourth of the series of five murals by N.C. Wyeth, the originals of which adorn the walls of the National Geographic Society buildings in Washington. The other four pictures have appeared as frontispieces in the National Geographic Magazine for March, May, July and November, 1928."
