The memorial to J G Bartholomew in Dean Cemetery in Edinburgh
John George BartholomewFRSE FRGS (22 March 1860 – 14 April 1920) was a British cartographer and geographer. As a holder of a royal warrant, he used the title "Cartographer to the King"; for this reason he was sometimes known by the epithet "the Prince of Cartography".[1]
Bartholomew's longest lasting legacy is arguably naming the continent of Antarctica,[2][3] which until his use of the term in 1890 had been largely ignored due to its lack of resources and harsh climate.
