The Tigris
The river runs roughly north to south through the city in a broad curve. It separates the old west bank from the newer east bank and gives the whole composition its centre line.

The map
Mosul grew up on both banks of the Tigris, and the river is the axis of every map of the city. On the west bank the old city is a compact knot of narrow lanes near the water, much denser than the newer districts around it. On the east bank, wider and more regular neighbourhoods spread out toward the plain. A series of bridges links the two sides.
Across the river from the old city lies the site of ancient Nineveh, once the capital of the Assyrian Empire. Its large area of open ground stands out among the surrounding streets. Beyond it the street pattern runs out into the farmland of the Nineveh Plains, and highways lead north toward Duhok and east toward Erbil.
A Mosul map poster records a city that has been rebuilt street by street since the fighting of 2016 and 2017. The al-Nuri mosque and its leaning al-Hadba minaret, destroyed in 2017, have been rebuilt through a UNESCO-led project. The old city's lanes appear on the map as they are lived in today. For many families, the map is a way of holding on to a place.
The river runs roughly north to south through the city in a broad curve. It separates the old west bank from the newer east bank and gives the whole composition its centre line.
On the west bank near the river, the historic core is a fine mesh of narrow streets. It is visibly tighter and less regular than any other part of the map.
On the east bank, the site of the Assyrian capital appears as a large area of open ground among the neighbourhoods, a reminder of how old this crossing of the Tigris is.

Why Mosul
For people who have left Mosul, or come back to it, a map of its streets can mean more than any photograph. Use the name of a quarter as the title and a date as the subtitle, with the coordinates of a family home beneath.
Paper and Sand give the river and lanes a warmer, quieter tone, and Noir works well in a darker room. Digital files are $9 for six sizes. Printed posters on matte paper ship from partners in more than 30 countries.
