EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable sea chart of the Baltic and North Sea, created by renowned cartographers Jan Luyken and Johannes van Keulen (I) in the late 17th century. The intricate details of this map transport us back to an era when exploration and navigation were at their peak. The chart is adorned with exquisite illustrations, including cupids, amores, amoretti, putti, and predatory animals such as bears. It also depicts scenes of whale fishery, highlighting the importance of whaling during that time. A globe sits prominently on the map alongside compasses and other nautical instruments. An angelic woman wearing a crown stands amidst ships sailing across the seas while cornelis tromp's arms are proudly displayed nearby. The composition is further enhanced by delicate roses adorning the scene. This historical artifact not only serves as a navigational tool but also reflects the artistry prevalent in cartography during this period. Every detail has been meticulously crafted to provide accurate geographical information for sailors traversing these waters. Quint Lox's expertly captured photograph allows us to appreciate every nuance of this magnificent piece from the Liszt Collection. It invites us to delve into history and marvel at the skillful blending of science and art that was characteristic of early cartography.
