EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning colored engraving from 1693 showcases a detailed chart of the English coast, Isle of Wight, and Portsmouth harbor. Created by Alexis-Hubert Jaillot, this piece is not only a beautiful work of art but also a valuable historical document. The intricate borders are graduated for latitude and longitude, with rhumb lines adding to the navigational accuracy.
The map includes sandbanks and soundings, as well as scales in French, English, German, and Spanish leagues. It provides a comprehensive view of the Solent area and other islands, banks, and coasts between Chichester Harbor and Pole Harbor. Inscribed with detailed information about its creation under royal orders in Paris in 1693.
This piece captures the essence of maritime cartography in the 17th century with its precise details and artistic flair. It offers viewers a glimpse into the past when navigation relied on maps like these for safe passage along coastal waters.
Displayed at the National Maritime Museum in London, this print is not just an artwork but also a historical treasure that sheds light on England's coastal geography during that time period. A must-have for any history buff or lover of nautical themes.
