The Replogle Atlas Desktop Globe features a statue of the Titan god from Greek mythology carrying the weight of the world on his shoulders! Atlas who was condemned to a lifetime of supporting the heavens by the Olympian gods serves as the decorative base of this 12 Inch Replogle Globe. The Titan is recreated as a detailed bronze resin replica while he hoists the die-cast meridian that frames the world globe. The full meridian features latitudinal calibrations along with subtle ornamentation. The sphere and the statue together reach 20 inches high.
The world globe features a parchment-styled ocean background. The political map is punctuated by a distinctive color scheme of dark earthy tones. A patchwork of browns maroons greys and yellows make up the continents on this political map. The world globe is filled with thousands of place names that are entirely current despite the antique aesthetic of the political map. This Replogle Atlas Desktop Globe succeeds as a tastefully decorative and highly informative model. The American made globe is yet another winner in the exemplary Replogle line illustrating the sophisticated design and meticulous cartography the company has built its reputation on.
