Low tundra interior
The island is flat and uninhabited, and its interior is broken into many small lakes and ponds. On the poster they form a loose, irregular texture inside the coastline.

About this Prince Charles Island map poster
Prince Charles Island sits in the eastern part of Foxe Basin, off the west coast of Baffin Island in Nunavut. From above it reads as a wide, rounded mass with few interruptions. There are no roads or settlements, only a pale interior patterned with small lakes and a shoreline that meets shallow water rather than cliffs. The island is defined almost entirely by its outline.
What makes the island unusual is how recently it entered the map. Despite its size, it was not recorded until 1948, when a Royal Canadian Air Force survey flight spotted it over the ice-bound basin. It was named for Prince Charles, born that same year. Few landmasses of this scale were charted so late, which gives its outline an unexpected freshness.
A Prince Charles Island map poster needs very little ink. The shoreline carries most of the composition, and the interior lakes add a fine scatter of shapes that shows best at larger formats. With no street grid competing for attention, the result sits closer to a coastal chart than a city plan, calm and almost abstract on the wall.

Smooth shoreline
Much of the coast is low and borders shallow water, giving a gently curving outline instead of the deep fjords and sharp headlands seen on many other Arctic islands.
Foxe Basin setting
A wider frame takes in the surrounding basin and nearby Air Force Island, which was also first recorded in 1948, placing the island among its late-charted neighbours.

Why Prince Charles Island
A map that means something
This map suits people drawn to the far north, to the history of exploration, or simply to shapes that feel remote. It is a reminder that parts of the map were still blank within living memory, and it hangs well in a study or reading room where a quieter image is wanted.
The title, subtitle and coordinates line can all be changed, so you can add a date or a line of your own. Choose from five styles: Classic black & white, Noir, Paper, Blueprint and Sand. The HD files cost $9 and include six print sizes, or you can order a matte print with an optional wooden frame.
