World Map: Nova Totius Terrarum Orbis Tabula | Gerard van Schagen | 1689
Taxes incluses
Two large hemispheres occupy the centre of this richly decorated world map, accompanied by smaller polar projections and an extensive framework of allegorical figures. Delicate geographical lettering and coastlines sit within a surrounding theatre of animals, clouds, vegetation and classical imagery. The contrast between the disciplined geometry of the spheres and the crowded decorative border is central to the sheet’s character. Published in Amsterdam in 1689, the map brings geography and pictorial invention together within the visual culture of Dutch cartography.
