EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable sea chart of the coast of Gambia and parts of Senegal, Guinea, and Sierra Leone. Created by renowned printmakers Jan Luyken and Johannes van Keulen I between 1683 and 1799, this map is a true testament to their mastery in cartography. As we delve into the intricacies of this historical piece, our eyes are immediately drawn to the vivid depictions that adorn its surface. Snakes slithering through waves, monstrous creatures lurking beneath the depths, monkeys swinging from branch to branch - all come together to create an enchanting scene that captures both imagination and curiosity. The presence of a black man wearing a feather headdress adds cultural significance to this artwork. With an ax in hand, he stands amidst cut snakes while monkey runs nearby. This portrayal hints at the rich diversity found along these coastal regions during that era. Compasses and compass roses meticulously placed on the chart guide us towards cardinal directions as we explore every inch of this geographical marvel. The inclusion of French miles further emphasizes its historical context. In Quint Lox's skillful capture, one can appreciate not only the artistry behind this sea chart but also its invaluable contribution to our understanding of world geography centuries ago. It serves as a reminder that even in today's digital age, there is still immense beauty in tangible representations like maps – windows into our past adventures across land and sea.
