EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back in time to the 17th century, where a sea chart of the south coast of Portugal takes center stage. Created by renowned printmaker Jan Luyken and attributed to an anonymous artist associated with Johannes van Keulen I, this exquisite piece showcases the artistry and precision of cartography during that era. The map itself is a remarkable display of geographical knowledge, meticulously depicting the southern coastline of Portugal with intricate details. Compass roses elegantly adorn the corners, guiding sailors on their voyages across unknown waters. A beautifully designed cartouche proudly displays its address while surrounded by cupids, amores, amoretti, and putti. As our eyes wander through this visual feast for the senses, we notice pitchers filled with fluid and luscious fruits scattered throughout. These elements seem to symbolize more than just nourishment; they represent bargaining tools as men negotiate amidst their maritime journeys. This stunning composition not only serves as a practical navigational tool but also captures the essence of exploration and discovery during an age when maps were treasured possessions. Quint Lox's skillful capture allows us to appreciate every intricate detail preserved in this historical artifact from centuries ago. Through this print from Liszt Collection, we are reminded of how far humanity has come in understanding our world's geography while simultaneously appreciating the craftsmanship that went into creating such masterpieces like Jan Luyken's sea chart.
