When I  first knew about Stroly’s map service, I thought of making a map of a Greek Island called Spetses. I never visited this place before but I become very interested of this island because it was often mentioned in Haruki Murakami’s essay.
In the essay, a map was drawn by Valentina and it really caught my attention. It was a bit  weird but I couldn’t get over it. I become very interested  and the way Haruki stated his short-term stay in Spetses was very interesting. 
The book was published 30 years ago but I decided to draw it with the intention to introduce this island that had been in my mind from Haruki-san’s essay. I made  further research about the place and I’ve seen many places that still remains. I would be very thrilled to visit this place one day.

Hyde Park is one of the most desirable neighborhoods of modern Austin. The legacy of its settlement and growth reminds one of the important role Hyde Park has played in the history of Austin.

An early promotional map of Hyde Park reveals Shipe's layout of the new neighborhood. Drawn by noted map maker Augustus Koch, who prepared "bird's eye" maps of many Texas cities including Austin, Cuero and Victoria, it depicts a grid pattern of tree-lined streets. The west side of the development was dominated by a large park in the area bounded by present-day Guadalupe, West 38th, Avenue D and West 43rd streets. A "Railway Car Barn" for the Austin Rapid Transit Railway Co., the city's streetcar line, was shown near the southwest corner of Avenue D and Third (now 40th) Street. Two separate man-made bodies of water are labeled Gem Lake and Crystal Fountain. Frequently mentioned among the amenities Hyde Park offered, the lakes were drained in the mid-1890s to provide additional land for residential use as part of the effort to develop Hyde Park Addition No. 2.

Take a tour of Revolutionary Paris, the home of the last queen of France, Marie Antoinette. Begin your tour at Versailles, a city within a palace, to witness the splendor of court life. Visit Tuileries Gardens where once stood the palace where the King and Queen were under house arrest. The Louvre used to hold the royal treasures, but became a museum during the Revolution. Eat at Café Procope, the oldest cafe in Paris, where the leaders Danton, Robespierre, and Marat met to discuss plans. You can eat at several establishments which serve Marie's favorite pastries, pistoles chocolates, and apple tea. Drive by and see the architecture, or visit the other sites which represent the more vivid parts of the revolutionary war that were inevitable, the change which was necessary to bring representation to all classes of people. Finish your tour by driving north to St. Denis Basilica, where the remains of King Louis XVI and Queen Marie Antoinette are interred. This map was inspired by Antonia Fraser's book, Marie Antoinette: The Journey.

正保城絵図は、正保元年(1644年)に幕府が諸藩に命じて作成させた城下町の地図です。
城郭内の建造物、石垣の高さ、堀の幅や水深などの軍事情報などが精密に描かれているほか、城下の町割・山川の位置・形が詳細に載されています。
各藩は幕府の命を受けてから数年で絵図を提出し、幕府はこれを早くから紅葉山文庫に収蔵しました。
幕末の同文庫の蔵書目録『増補御書籍目録』には131鋪の所蔵が記録されています。国立公文書館では63鋪の正保城絵図を所蔵しています。昭和61年（1986)国の重要文化財に指定されました。
現在の神奈川県小田原市に、築かれた平山城。城主の名前の記載はありませんが、寛永10年(1633）の地震後の修復を経た稲葉正勝（いなば まさかつ・1597-1634)の時代の様子と思われます。また、西北の隅の部分が切り取られています。原図サイズ：東西3.1メートル×南北2.91メートル。

Alexander Samuel MacLeod was a painter and printmaker. He was born on Prince Edward Island, Canada. After moving to San Francisco, he continued his artistic training at the California School of Design under Frank Van Sloun. 
 
In 1921, MacLeod arrived in Hawaii, where he worked in the art departments of the magazine Paradise of the Pacific and the local papers, The Honolulu Advertiser and the Honolulu Star-Bulletin. By 1929, he had returned to Canada and resided there for ten years. Again in Hawaii, MacLeod became the director of the graphic art department for the United States Army in the Pacific. 
 
In 1943, he published a book of his Hawaiian prints, The Spirit of Hawaii, Before and After Pearl Harbor. MacLeod retired to Palo Alto, California, where he died in 1956. 
 
Scenes are amazing vignettes and insets of life in Honolulu. An inset piece in center has written: "In this map you will find depicted in pictorial fashion the history, landmarks & customs of these colorful isles. A map of Honolulu and the Sandwich Islands which we know call the Hawaiian Islands."

I'm not originally from Orlando, but I like to say that our little family is "from" Orlando since my husband and I both went to school here, met, got married, and had two babies in the City Beautiful. During our time as Orlando residents, we loved to get takeout from a restaurant or grab a drink + dessert from a cafe or pick up fixin's for a perfect picnic and sit together under the warm sunshine in one of Orlando's many green parks. We also have a thing for books and our idea of a lovely day is lounging on a picnic blanket with good reads and great eats.

この2年間、なかなか自由に部屋を出ることは叶わず、何度旅することを夢見たろうか。
外界とアクセスをする時はマスク一枚に自由を隔てられ、本当の意味で自由になれたのは部屋の中だけだった。

この一枚の絵は、そんな世界中の旅を夢見た人が壁に地図を広げて、旅を夢見る瞬間を描いたものです。
私たちは部屋の中にいながらも世界中の隣人と繋がり、それはまた宇宙にも繋がっています。

あなたはどんな部屋からこの部屋を眺めていますか？
