EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print of St. Helena, 1685 captures the intricate and detailed work of William Hack, a prominent cartographer from the 17th century. The bound sheet showcases South America, specifically the Pacific Coast, Ecuador, and Santa Elena in exquisite detail.
Bound within 'A Wagoner of the South Sea describing the sea coast from Acapulco to Albemarle isle', this English translation of a Spanish derrotero captured from the Spanish ship 'Rosario' by Captain Bartholomew Sharpe in 1680 is a true treasure. Hack's multiple copies of this atlas were highly sought after, with this particular one being presented to James II.
The map not only shows Sharpe's track but also depicts the silver mine at Potosi and features a beautifully decorated title cartouche and scale. The vibrant colors used in this artwork bring to life the coastal scenes depicted along with various landmarks and geographical features.
This piece is not just a map; it is a work of art that represents an important era in maritime history. The attention to detail and precision in mapping out these regions make it a valuable historical artifact that provides insight into navigation during that time period.
