U.S. Coast Survey - San Francisco and Vicinity, 1853

About the Artwork Admire this stunning Nautical Survey Chart of San Francisco that showcases the city by the bay in all its nautical glory. The United States Coast and Geodetic Survey was a United States federal agency that defined and managed a national coordinate system, providing the foundation for transportation and communication; mapping and charting; and a large number of applications of science and engineering. Our highly refined recreations of these nautical maps from the early 20th century help recreate those hydrographic charts in precision detail. Each print will have its own vintage patina and may vary ever so slightly in hues and depth to display images so you will be purchasing a one-of-a-kind print.
