Published by D.W. Kellog between 1833-1842, this amusing Map of the Open Country of Woman’s Heart
paints the “fairer sex” in a rather unflattering light. From the mole
traps in the Province of Deception, to the city of Moi-meme in the Land
of Selfishness, to the Plains of Susceptibility in the Region of
Sentimentality, this ever-so-charming illustration certainly
demonstrates this Victorian gentleman’s equal taste for maps and disdain
for women. I suspect this fellow must have had a recent broken heart.
But then again, that just be my Jilting Corner (in the Land of Coquetry,
of course) talking.
