The tenth biennial Imago Mundi Prize will be awarded in 2023 to
honour the Imago Mundi article judged to have made the most significant
contribution to the discipline.
The judges will consider articles published in the 2021 and 2022 issues (volumes 73 and
74). The winner will receive $1000 and will automatically qualify for a J.B. Harley
Travel Award to the subsequent International Conference
on the History of Cartography (Lyon, France, June-July 2024). The winner will also receive a
certificate, which, if he or she is able to attend, will be presented at the conference.
Full length articles will be eligible for the Prize, but not shorter articles, since only
full length articles are automatically subject to the (anonymous) external refereeing
process before acceptance for publication. Directors of Imago Mundi Ltd (who take it in
turns to serve on the panel of judges) are not eligible for consideration.
The Imago Mundi Prize was generously sponsored by Kenneth Nebenzahl, and, since 2021, by Jossy Nebenzahl.
