EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable sea chart, meticulously crafted by Jan Luyken and Johannes van Keulen in the late 17th century. The map encompasses a portion of the enchanting northeast coast of England and Scotland, offering a glimpse into the intricate world of cartography during that era. As one's eyes wander across this masterpiece, they are immediately drawn to the mythical creatures adorning its corners. A mesmerizing merman and mermaid gracefully swim alongside an alluring siren, their presence adding an air of mystique to this already fascinating piece. Mirroring their beauty are schools of vibrant fishes dancing amidst swirling waves. The sea chart itself serves as a gateway to exploration, revealing detailed geography and navigational routes along the coastline. An inset featuring the majestic River Tyne captures attention with its imposing castle overlooking its banks. Compass roses guide sailors on their journeys while decorative cartouches add elegance to this functional work of art. Every inch is adorned with meticulous details: French miles denoting distances, gods observing from above, and various languages such as German, Spanish, and English enhancing its international appeal. Quint Lox's skillful photography brings out every nuance in this historical treasure from the Liszt Collection. It invites viewers to immerse themselves in a bygone era when maps were not just tools but works of art that ignited curiosity about our vast world.
