For centuries, artists-travelers like Albrecht Dürer, J. M. W. Turner, Katsushika Hokusai, and David Hockney have embraced the practice of keeping visual journals. These intrepid explorers, alongside explorers like Jacques le Moyne, Alexander von Humboldt, Charles Darwin, and Marianne North, documented their journeys in sketchbooks and diaries, capturing the essence of their experiences through topographical drawing.
