EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable sea chart depicting various Surinamese rivers, created by the talented duo Jan Luyken and Johannes van Keulen (I) in the late 17th to 18th century. The intricate details of this map offer a glimpse into the world of cartography during that era. The chart vividly portrays the expansive network of rivers flowing through Suriname, including Commewijne, Coppenameriver, and Suriname River. These waterways were vital for trade and transportation in this region known for its sugar production. As we explore the map further, our eyes are drawn to beautifully illustrated compass roses indicating cardinal directions. They guide sailors navigating across the vast Atlantic Ocean towards Paramaribo's estuary – an important hub for traders at that time. Notably, amidst these geographical features lies an intriguing scene featuring dark-skinned men laboring in sugarcane fields while turtles roam nearby. This depiction provides us with a glimpse into the historical context of slavery and colonialism prevalent during this period. Quint Lox has skillfully captured every detail of this historic print from Liszt Collection, allowing us to appreciate both its artistic beauty and historical significance. It serves as a testament to humanity's continuous quest for exploration and understanding of our world's geography throughout centuries past.
