'Map of the Coasts of Norway and Lapland, to illustrate Lieut. G. T. Temple’s paper.'
George T. Temple’s map of the coasts of Norway and Lapland illustrates British geographical interest in the far north of Europe. The subject is maritime and Arctic-adjacent: fjords, headlands, northern coasts and routes towards the polar seas. Temple’s work brought Scandinavian and Lapland coastal geography to a Royal Geographical Society audience at a time when northern waters, Arctic access and Russian borderlands were closely watched. An attractive Norway and Lapland map for collectors of northern Europe, polar approaches and maritime geography.
