EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a historic pass card of a large part of the Wadden Islands, specifically Vriesland, Groeninger, and Emderland with its subordinate Eylanden. The pass card stretches from t Eylant der Schelling all the way up to Wanger Oog, providing an intricate and detailed map of this enchanting region. Seer Naaukeurig compiled and improved this pass card meticulously, rectifying any previous errors that may have existed. The title on the object describes it as a Paskaart of the Dutch and German Wadden Islands, Friesland, and Groningen. Two compass roses adorn the map, with the North positioned below. Above left is an elegant cartouche featuring the title and address of the publisher. Flanking this are depictions of a Frisian woman and a sailor, adding a touch of charm to this historical piece. Below the address are two barrels accompanied by a stack of cheeses - symbols that represent trade in these coastal regions. Intriguingly placed at bottom right are depictions of a merman and mermaid holding onto a line that indicates scale in German, Spanish, English or French miles - showcasing both artistic creativity and practicality. This remarkable engraving was created by Jan Luyken in Amsterdam between 1681-1799 using paper as his medium. It offers viewers an opportunity to delve into history while exploring themes such as navigation at sea (sirens), maritime trade (cheese), seafaring life (seaman), and the beauty of nature's wonders like the Wadden Sea.
