EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases excerpts of nautical charts dating back to 1897. The lithograph, published over a century ago, offers a glimpse into the maritime world of that era. Divided into three sections, the charts highlight significant locations: Helgoland in Germany, Stettiner Haff (Szczecin Lagoon) spanning both Germany and Poland, and the vast North Sea. The first section focuses on Helgoland, an island known for its strategic location in the North Sea. The chart reveals intricate details of coastal lines and depths, providing invaluable information for sailors navigating these treacherous waters. Moving on to Stettiner Haff, this part of the lithograph captures the lagoon's complex network of channels and waterways. As an important trading route connecting various Baltic ports during that time period, this chart would have been indispensable for seafarers seeking safe passage through these challenging waters. Finally, we are presented with a broader view of the North Sea itself - a vast expanse teeming with maritime activity even then. This section encompasses multiple regions within this expansive body of water while highlighting key features such as currents and navigational hazards. Overall, this exquisite lithograph serves as both a historical artifact and an artistic representation of navigation in late 19th-century Europe. Its meticulous detailing transports us back to an era when maps were meticulously hand-drawn by skilled cartographers who relied on their expertise to guide ships safely across uncharted seas.
