EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "Pass card southern part North Sea part east coast" takes us back in time to the 17th century, when navigation relied on beautifully crafted maps and compass roses. This particular pass card showcases the southern part of the North Sea and a portion of the east coast of England, including Holland, Zeeland, Flanders, and Jan Luyken's hometown Amsterdam. Measuring an impressive 520mm in height and 590mm in width, this engraving on paper is a true work of art. The attention to detail is evident as four compass roses guide sailors through these treacherous waters. In the bottom right corner lies a bet with a pass card of the river Ms. , adding another layer of intrigue to this historical piece. Decorated with delicate angels and two dignitaries at its top, this pass card also features a scale for accurate measurements. Its publisher's title and address proudly adorn it as well. While we don't know much about its creator Jan Luyken or why his attribution was rejected between 1688-1803, one thing is certain: this print offers us a glimpse into maritime history like no other. It serves as both an educational tool for understanding past navigation techniques and an exquisite piece that would enhance any collection
