EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a pass card of the northwestern part of the Baltic Sea, featuring the stunning Swedish coast. The pass card, dating back to 1681-1799 and measuring approximately 515mm in height and 580mm in width, is an accurate representation of this maritime region. The pass card exhibits intricate details such as two compass roses, with the North direction indicated on the right side. On the right corner, a cartouche displays essential information including the title, publisher's address, and scale in German, Spanish, English or French miles (approximately 1:450000). Surrounding the title are three figures that add artistic flair to this historical document. On the left side of the pass card stands a blacksmith holding a hammer, tongs, and a lamp symbolizing his craft. Meanwhile, atop the title sits a woman adorned with a city crown representing her personification as Fire element. Standing beside her is another figure holding a heart signifying fire as one of four elements. This remarkable engraving by Jan Luyken from Amsterdam provides valuable insights into navigational tools used during that era for safe passage through these waters. It also highlights significant landmarks like Gotland within its depiction. The Liszt Collection has preserved this exquisite piece on paper for enthusiasts who appreciate both historical artifacts and maritime history.
