EDITORS COMMENTS
This beautifully detailed coloured engraving from 1588 showcases the Coast of Prussia, with all the havens and rivers from Memel to Heel. Created by Lucas Janszoon Waghenaer, a renowned cartographer of the 16th century, this map provides a fascinating glimpse into maritime navigation during that era.
The intricate design includes two coastal profiles, adorned with two ships and three sea creatures. The chart is oriented with North at 236 degrees and lacks scales for measurement. It was originally featured in Anthony Ashley's English edition of 'The Mariners Mirror', which was ordered to be translated by Lord Howard of Effingham due to its popularity.
Waghenaer's sea atlas 'De Spieghel der Zeevaerdt' became so widely used that it led to the term 'waggoner' being adopted in English as a reference for books of charts. This particular print is housed at the National Maritime Museum in London, UK, where it serves as a valuable historical artifact depicting the coastlines and waterways of Prussia during the 16th century.
With its vibrant colours and intricate details, this engraving offers viewers a window into the past and highlights the importance of accurate cartography in maritime exploration and trade.
