EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the beauty and intricacy of the sea coasts of Algarve, Portugal, dating back to around 1588. Created by Lucas Janszoon Waghenaer, a renowned cartographer of his time, this hand-colored engraving is a true masterpiece.
The detailed chart showcases not only the geographical features of the land but also includes two ships and sea creatures as decorative elements. The scale provided on the print gives viewers an idea of the vastness and scope of these coastal areas.
Commissioned for Anthony Ashley's English edition of 'The Mariners Mirrour', this chart was part of Waghenaer's famous sea atlas 'De Spieghel der Zeevaerdt'. It quickly gained popularity in England, with Lord Howard of Effingham ordering its translation. In fact, it became so well-known that 'waggoner' became synonymous with a book of charts in English maritime terminology.
Displayed at the National Maritime Museum in London, this print serves as a historical artifact showcasing both artistic skill and navigational knowledge from centuries past. It offers a glimpse into the world of exploration and discovery during a time when mapping out coastlines was crucial for seafaring voyages.
