Pieter van den Keere (also, Kaeius)Nova Totius Terrarum Orbis Geographica Ac Hydrographica Tabula1608/1630
1608/1630
About the Item
Copper-plate engraving, hand-colored, 1608 - c.1630 and published by Joannes Jansonius, Amsterdam. Image size 15.75 x 21.19 inches (40 x 53.9 cm).
A classic example of a world map based on Mercator's projection. This beautiful carte-a-figures map of the world by Pieter van den Keere was based on Blaeu's almost identical map that was issued in 1606. Some of the engraved ornamentations include allegorical representations of the Sun, Moon, and the five known planets. Down the sides are, on the left, four panels illustrating the elements and, on the right, the four seasons. Along the bottom are seven vignettes showing the Seven Wonders of the World. Geographically the map is largely copied from Blaeu but includes more legends and additions referring to explorations in the Arctic. A long note near the cartouche discusses the theory that the straits of Anian and Davis link to form a Northwest Passage. Also added are rhumb lines radiating from three compass roses arrayed along the equator. The map was first published in 1608. In 1621 Kaerius sold his plates to Jan Jansson who then issued the map with his imprint. This example is the fourth state with Jansson's imprint and no date. German text on verso. A scarce map.
Overall good condition. Some repaired splitting along lower centerfold, and a tiny repaired hole just above the Black Sea. There are several small chips and tears in the outer margins. All have been professionally repaired. Original hand-coloring with some minor modern enhancements. Framed in 1.25-inch wood molding painted black with gold metal leaf lip. 8 ply rag stock mat and rag stock backing. Finished in UV Plexiglas.

The Bridge
By Frank Benson
Located in New York, NY
"The Bridge" is a drypoint by Frank Benson created in 1923. Printed in an edition of 150 this impression is signed in pencil, lower left. The image size is 13 1/2 x 10 5/8" (34.2 x 26.8 cm) and sheet size 16 1/2 x 13 1/16" (41.8 x 33.3 cm).
FRANK W. BENSON (1862-1951)
Frank Weston Benson, well known for his American impressionist paintings, also produced an incredible body of prints - etchings, drypoints, and a few lithographs. Born and raised on the North Shore of Massachusetts, Benson, a natural outdoorsman, grew up sailing, fishing, and hunting. From a young age, he was fascinated with drawing and birding – this keen interest continued throughout his life.
His first art instruction was with Otto Grundman at the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, and then in 1883 in Paris at the Academie Julian where he studied the rigorous ‘ecole des beaux arts’ approach to drawing and painting for two years.
During the early 1880’s Seymour Haden visited Boston giving a series of lectures on etching. This introduction to the European etching...
