Delhi and environs. Plate 47, compiled by J. G. Bartholomew for Constable’s Hand Atlas of India (1893), offers a richly resolved portrait of India’s storied capital at a transformative moment. This city map is remarkable for the way it knits Shahjahanabad’s Mughal core to emerging colonial arteries, showing roads, railways, bridges, canals, and public institutions with disciplined clarity. Hachures subtly render the Delhi Ridge and river terraces, while a refined palette organizes function and jurisdiction—most strikingly in the cantonments, highlighted in yellow. The Yamuna’s winding course anchors the composition, with crossings and embankments carefully plotted. As an urban document, it excels: neighborhoods, markets, parks, and landmark buildings are all keyed, allowing the reader to navigate from fortified gates to bazaars to administrative compounds with uncommon ease.
Within the walled city, the map traces the mercantile spine of Chandni Chowk from the Red Fort to Fatehpuri, punctuated by side streets such as Hauz Qazi Road and Sitaram Bazar Road that braid into dense market quarters. Kashmere Gate and the environs of Delhi Junction are crisply defined, as are the precincts around Jama Masjid and Daryaganj, where Bahadurshah Zafar Marg skirts the line of the old fortifications. To the west, Paharganj Road funnels traffic toward Sadar Bazar and the caravan routes beyond, embodying Delhi’s age-old exchange with the hinterland. Notable parks and gardens—Roshanara Bagh and Qudsia Bagh among them—temper the urban fabric, while public buildings, courthouses, and schools appear as confident anchors in the civic landscape.
The colonial imprint is mapped with unsentimental precision. Cantonments, picked out in yellow, ring the historic core and extend toward the Civil Lines, parade grounds, and officers’ quarters. Major thoroughfares—Minto Road, Feroz Shah Road, Tilak Marg, and Victoria Road—radiate toward new civic axes marked by Parliament Street, Rajpath, Shahjahan Road, and Windsor Place, conveying the geometry of governance and ceremony. Connaught Place emerges as a pivotal urban node tying commercial and administrative spheres, while Race Course Road hints at leisure and elite recreation. Railways stitch Delhi to the subcontinent: lines converge at the river crossing, marshalling yards, and stations, with the Old Yamuna Bridge uniting road and rail. Together, these layers chronicle the consolidation of imperial infrastructure against the palimpsest of Mughal Delhi.
Water and terrain, the city’s oldest shapers, are central to Bartholomew’s depiction. The Yamuna curves past Firoz Shah Kotla, its banks scored by embankments, ghats, and ferry points, while the Western Yamuna Canal and the Agra Canal are traced with lock, distributary, and bridge carefully symbolized. Wazirabad Road tracks the approach to the headworks upstream, situating Delhi within its hydraulic network. To the northwest, hachures dramatize the Delhi Ridge, with the Flagstaff Tower and Hindu Rao’s House commanding the higher ground—features that carry the memory of 1857 and the city’s strategic topography. Greenswards and public gardens soften the hardscape, from the Ridge’s wooded escarpment to civic parks that frame institutions along Lodhi Road and Tilak Marg, where tomb-gardens and new avenues meet.
J. G. Bartholomew’s authorship elevates the sheet from reference to revelation. Famed for cartographic exactitude and elegant symbology, he synthesizes survey data, toponyms, and administrative boundaries into an intelligible urban narrative. In Constable’s Hand Atlas of India, this plate stands out for the balance it strikes—scientific in its hachured relief, lucid in its color logic, and humane in its attention to markets, mosques, gardens, and schools. For historians, it fixes the encounter between Mughal legacy and British modernity; for urbanists, it illustrates the birth of axial planning along Shahjahan Road, Rajpath, and Connaught Place; for collectors, it is a consummate city map, dense with roads from Chandni Chowk and Kashmere Gate Road to Lodhi Road and Bhishmapitamah Road, each thread contributing to Delhi’s enduring tapestry.

Please double check the images to make sure that a specific town or place is shown on this map. You can also get in touch and ask us to check the map for you.
This map looks great at every size, but I always recommend going for a larger size if you have space. That way you can easily make out all of the details.
This map looks amazing at sizes all the way up to 50in (125cm). If you are looking for a larger map, please get in touch.
The model in the listing images is holding the 16x20in (40x50cm) version of this map.

This would make a wonderful birthday, Christmas, Father's Day, work leaving, anniversary or housewarming gift for someone from the areas covered by this map.
This map is available as a giclée print on acid free archival matte paper, or you can buy it framed. The frame is a nice, simple black frame that suits most aesthetics. Please get in touch if you'd like a different frame colour or material. My frames are glazed with super-clear museum-grade acrylic (perspex/acrylite), which is significantly less reflective than glass, safer, and will always arrive in perfect condition.
This map is also available as a float framed canvas, sometimes known as a shadow gap framed canvas or canvas floater. The map is printed on artist's cotton canvas and then stretched over a handmade box frame. We then "float" the canvas inside a wooden frame, which is available in a range of colours (black, dark brown, oak, antique gold and white). This is a wonderful way to present a map without glazing in front. See some examples of float framed canvas maps and explore the differences between my different finishes.
For something truly unique, this map is also available in "Unique 3D", our trademarked process that dramatically transforms the map so that it has a wonderful sense of depth. We combine the original map with detailed topography and elevation data, so that mountains and the terrain really "pop". For more info and examples of 3D maps, check my Unique 3D page.

Mi marco estándar es un marco de madera de fresno negro estilo galería. Es simple y tiene un aspecto bastante moderno. Mi marco estándar tiene alrededor de 20 mm (0.8 in) de ancho.
Utilizo acrílico super claro (perspex/acrylite) para el vidrio del marco. Es más ligero y seguro que el vidrio, y se ve mejor, ya que la reflectividad es menor.
Seis colores de marco estándar están disponibles de forma gratuita (negro, marrón oscuro, gris oscuro, roble, blanco y oro antiguo).El enmarcado y montaje/matizado personalizado está disponible si buscas algo diferente.
La mayoría de los mapas, arte e ilustraciones también están disponibles como un lienzo enmarcado. Utilizamos lienzo de algodón mate (no brillante), lo estiramos sobre un marco de madera de caja de origen sostenible, y luego 'flotamos' la pieza dentro de un marco de madera. El resultado final es bastante hermoso, y no hay cristal que se interponga.
Todos los marcos se proporcionan "listos para colgar", con una cuerda o soportes en la parte posterior. Los marcos muy grandes tendrán placas de colgar de alta resistencia y/o un listón de montaje. Si tienes alguna pregunta, por favor ponte en contacto.
