Additional Information

Published by pioneering lithographer, illustrator, and mapmaker Albert Ruger, this stunning depiction of Minneapolis in 1879, shows the city in a period of significant growth and transition. Ruger's bird's eye perspective technique was becoming in vogue during the middle part of the nineteenth century and was one of the most popular styles by the turn of the century. The distinctive aesthetic of these perspectives immediately transports the viewer back in time. These maps were produced not only to promote the city to prospective merchants and workers but for local businesses and residents to display their civic pride.

Minneapolis grew around Fort Snelling, which had been established at the confluence of the Mississippi and Minnesota Rivers, where the Saint Anthony Falls provided power for numerous flour and sawmills. Saint Anthony to the east was annexed by Minneapolis in 1872 to form one city that spanned the rivers banks. 

European immigrants had flocked to the region during the nineteenth century due to its cold climate and vast dairy and farmlands that were reminiscent of the lands of Northern Europe and Scandinavia. These immigrants established numerous close-knit communities throughout the state. During Industrialization, many flocked to Minneapolis for jobs in manufacturing and milling, further establishing neighborhoods based on each unique heritage. By 1879 Minneapolis produced a majority of the nation's flour and relied heavily on the robust spring wheat, which was harvested in the summer. Minneapolis's rich history and unique character are on display in this authentic piece of cartographical history. 

Our museum quality giclee print comes printed with archival ink on premium heavyweight matte paper. Shipped in a sturdy cardboard tube your print will arrive ready to be framed. This eye-catching vintage map reproduction print makes the perfect gift for anyone that loves history and imagery.
