EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a historic passport map of the Zuiderzee and the Wadden Sea, offering a fascinating glimpse into the geographical features of this region. The intricately detailed map includes all sandbanks and depths, providing valuable information for sailors and navigators. The composition is adorned with two compass roses, with the North positioned on the left side to guide seafarers in their journeys. Above left, we find an array of symbolic figures surrounding the title. The Dutch Lion stands proudly alongside Minerva, who holds a bundle of arrows and wears a peace hat as symbols of wisdom and harmony. Mercury, known as Hermes in Greek mythology, represents communication and commerce while a skipper signifies maritime expertise. Beneath the title lies a scale presented in German, Spanish, English or French miles - highlighting its international significance during that era. In the bottom right corner rests Amsterdam's coat of arms along with an engraved stone displaying the publisher's address flanked by adorable putti or cupids. Created by Jan Luyken in 1681 using paper and brush techniques, this remarkable piece not only serves as a navigational tool but also reflects artistic craftsmanship from centuries ago. Its inclusion of significant locations such as Noord-Holland, Overijssel, Friesland emphasizes its relevance to regional history.
