Oeuvres Romanesques

This guy walked up to me today, carrying four segments of different 17th century maps. Photocopies. He wanted to know if I could make them look like old photographs. Not old maps, but old photographs of maps, mind you. He wanted them back in about an hour. I looked at the maps and noticed this triangle of barren land, no houses on them, getting gradually more developed over time, on the progressive fragments of the maps he'd given me.
