EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of history, the "Sea chart of the coast of Namibia and South Africa" created by Jan Luyken and Johannes van Keulen (I). Dating back to an unknown period between 1683 and 1799, this African map is not only a testament to their cartographic expertise but also a work of art. The intricate details on this ornamental sea chart are truly mesmerizing. As we delve into its depths, we encounter vibrant illustrations of exotic birds, including a majestic parrot perched upon a branch. The presence of a mother with her baby and young child adds an endearing touch that reminds us of the human connection to these lands. The map itself provides invaluable geographical information about the coastlines of Namibia and South Africa. Inset within it is Saldanha Bay, marked with compass roses indicating northward directions as well as French miles for navigation purposes. What makes this image even more significant is the inclusion of black women and children in traditional attire. Their presence challenges historical narratives that often overlook or marginalize African contributions to cartography. Quint Lox's expertly captured photograph allows us to appreciate both the artistic beauty and historical significance encapsulated within this sea chart. It serves as a reminder that maps not only guide our journeys but also hold stories waiting to be discovered about our world's past.
