For centuries, explorers, merchants, and military forces have relied on maps to help navigate our planet. Often skillfully drawn and meticulously plotted, these works of art required skill and creativity to produce. Using anecdotal evidence and scant geographical data, cartographers were known for including fanciful drawings to tease the mind and the imagination.

This calendar features full-colour maps from the British Library's collection alongside 12 monthly grids.
