EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-coloured engraving, titled "Map of Northern Europe" takes us on a journey through the intricate world of cartography. Created by Johannes van Keulen in the 17th century, this exquisite piece is now part of a private collection. The map showcases the vast expanse of Northern Europe with remarkable detail and precision. From Greenland to Spitzbergen, Iceland to Norway, Sweden to Finland, and Britain to Scandinavia - every corner is meticulously depicted. The vibrant hues used for colouring bring life to this historical masterpiece. A beautifully designed cartouche adorns the map's corners, adding an element of elegance and sophistication. A compass rose sits at its center, guiding explorers through uncharted waters and unknown territories. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are transported back in time when navigation relied heavily on maps like these. It serves as a reminder of humanity's insatiable thirst for discovery and adventure. The Map of Northern Europe not only provides valuable geographical information but also offers insight into the rich history of exploration during that era. It stands as a testament to mankind's relentless pursuit of knowledge about our planet.
