EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print showcases a historical artifact titled "Passport card of Puerto Rico, with insert cards of St Thomas and the port of Puerto Rico". This exquisite piece, created by Jan Luyken in Amsterdam between 1684 and 1799, is an engraving on paper measuring approximately 522 mm in height and 595 mm in width. The passport card itself features intricate details such as two compass roses, with the North positioned above. The bottom left corner proudly displays the title along with the publisher's address and scale information provided in German, Spanish, English or French miles. The scale is estimated to be around 1:1,300,000. Adding to its allure are two remarkable figures flanking the data section. One woman adorns a ship's crown and holds a Jacobs staff while the other wears an armillarium on her head. These symbols represent their association with navigation and celestial spheres. Accompanying this magnificent artwork are insert cards depicting St Thomas and the port of Puerto Rico. Together they provide additional geographical context within this historic document. This print from Liszt Collection offers viewers a glimpse into the past when passports were not only functional but also works of art. It serves as a testament to Jan Luyken's craftsmanship while preserving significant aspects of Puerto Rican history for generations to come.
