A Map of Castilla Del Oro Panama On the Spanish Main. B. Ashburton Tripp, Cleveland O, Des et Del. Copyright 1930 B.A.T.
List No
8642.000
Note
A hand drawn and colored pictorial map of Panama, one of Tripp's most elaborate and beautiful maps - for some reason, he never published this map, although he offered it for sale in 1931 at the annual May Show at the Cleveland Museum of Art, along with all rights of publication. Tripp had a special interest in Panama and his wife, Gertrude Koehne Tripp was a former school teacher in the Canal Zone. The map has many views of important places in Panama, portraits of explorers, and a ring of figures that are described as zoomorphic images of the Chiriqui Indian Deities, surrounding the map of the country.

List No
8256.000
Note
Detailed uncolored pictorial map showing the Island of Martha's Vineyard in center. Relief shown pictorially. Includes towns, roads, lighthouses, forests and waterways. Surrounded by sketches of naval boats and fantasy portraits of the four winds in each corner. Vignettes bordering the map showing maritime scenes in each corner, churches and lighthouses. An inscription borders the entire scene. Inscription along bottom margin reads, ""This is the goodliest land we ever saw for it is replenished with fair fields and in them fragrant flowers."" Inscription along side and top margins reads, "We stood awhile like men ravished at the beautie and delicacie of the sweet soile; for besides rivers clear lakes of fresh water we saw meadows very large and hedged with stately groves - There was such an incredible store of vines we could not go for treading on them.' The Voyage of Bartholomew Gosnold - 1602." Signed and dated in ink at the bottom right, B. Ashburton Tripp, '54. Tripp died the next year, 1955, so we presume this was his last map.

Note
Manuscript plan of Washington's house and grounds at Mount Vernon, bordered by scenes of the estate, profiles of George and Martha Washington, and quotes from Washington's correspondence. Tripp lived in Alexandria, Virginia, for part of his professional life, so visits to the estate may have inspired making the plan, or it might have been a professional assignment as part of his landscape design business. Date is estimated from this plan's inclusion in the 1932 May Show at the Cleveland Museum of Art.
