EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a passport card from the river Gironde to Bordeaux, offering a glimpse into the rich history and navigational tools of the time. The pass card is adorned with intricate details, including a compass rose positioned uniquely with the North below. Above the title cartouche lies an inset featuring a meticulously crafted map of the port at Bardeaux. At the bottom center of this remarkable piece, we find both the address of the publisher and an intriguing scale presented in German, Spanish, English or French miles. This scale provides valuable information about distances for travelers using this pass card. Intriguingly, two men can be seen engrossed in studying a compass while a woman confidently holds onto a helm nearby. These elements symbolize navigation and exploration on ships during that era. Additionally, parts of ships' exteriors such as rudders are depicted within this print. The artist behind this masterpiece has been attributed to Jan Luyken; however, some dispute this claim. Regardless of its creator's identity, it is undeniable that Amsterdam served as its birthplace between 1681 and 1803. Printed on high-quality paper through etching techniques, this print measures an impressive height of 510 mm by width 570 mm. It offers viewers an opportunity to delve into historical maritime travel along one of France's most significant rivers – Gironde – all while appreciating fine artistry and attention to detail.
