EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a passport card depicting a mesmerizing part of the south coast of Portugal. The intricate details on this historical document transport us back in time to an era when exploration and trade were at their peak. Two compass roses grace the card, with the North elegantly positioned on the left side. At the top left corner, we find a beautifully designed cartouche that proudly displays the title and address of its publisher. The scene depicted on this passport card is bustling with activity. Two men engage in negotiations, possibly discussing matters related to commerce or travel. In the background, a warehouse stands tall as goods are being transported inside, hinting at the vibrant economic life along this coastal region. At the bottom right corner, three more men can be seen examining a scale that displays measurements in German, Spanish, and either English or French miles. This attention to detail highlights how meticulous cartographers were during those times. Created by Jan Luyken from Amsterdam between 1681 and 1803 using paper etching techniques, this remarkable piece captures not only geographical information but also provides insight into societal dynamics and commercial interactions of that period.
