Throughout history, color has been used on maps for a number of different reasons.
From illustrated artistic works of fantasy to visual depictions of scientific data, the use of color has changed throughout cartographic history. In this From the Vault selection, we’ll explore several creative uses of color and the different ways it can be used to visualize map-based data.
This free showing will be hosted Friday, February 27 in the Learning Center with a staff member from the Leventhal Center available to answer questions. This collection showing is specially curated by our Visitor Services & Operations Assistant, Alex Ferguson.
Drop in any time between 2:00PM - 4:00PM. No reservation is required.
