EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable sea chart of the Wadden Sea, stretching from Den Helder to Terschelling. Created by renowned cartographers Jan Luyken and Johannes van Keulen between 1681 and 1799, this intricate map is a testament to their mastery in the field of geography. The chart depicts the vast expanse of the Wadden Sea with meticulous detail, capturing its geographical features and navigational routes. Sailors and seamen relied on such maps to navigate these treacherous waters, making it an invaluable tool for maritime exploration. Intriguingly, amidst the wealth of information presented on this chart, we spot a seaman accompanied by his loyal canine companion. This inclusion adds a touch of humanity to an otherwise technical representation. The presence of compasses and other instruments further emphasizes the importance placed on accurate navigation during that era. With its elegant cartouche displaying addresses in German, Spanish, English, and French miles, this sea chart served as an essential resource for sailors from various nations. It not only facilitated safe passage but also fostered international cooperation among seafarers. Quint Lox's expert photography captures every minute detail of this historical artifact while preserving its rich colors and textures. As we gaze upon this print from Liszt Collection, we are transported back in time to witness the ingenuity behind early cartography—a true testament to human curiosity about our world's oceans and lands.
