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.

Hidden Cities I / second state
By Peter Milton
Located in New York, NY
“Hidden Cities I : The Ministry. Second State.”
Contemporary artist Peter Milton created this etching and engraving in 2006. The printed image size is Image size 23.50 x 36.88 inches and the paper size is 31 x 42 inches. This impression is signed, dated, and titled in pencil and inscribed “11/75” – the 11th impression from the total printing of 75.
“I do love to draw. I feel that I am being granted membership in the Brotherhood of Merlin, conjuring forth some apparition. As a drawing develops, I sense a vague presence coming more and more into focus, something in a white fog emerging and becoming increasingly palpable.” – P. Milton, “The primacy of touch. The Drawings of Peter Milton”
“Working in layers, Milton begins with drawings based on people and places, with nods to Western art history and culture. He is a master of the appropriated image, a term that may conjure Andy Warhol and his Pop Art comrades. But Milton steps further back in history, avoiding the Pop sense of cool advertising and popular culture references. Instead, a broader cultural past is tapped through historical photographs of key players, architecture, and locales, which he reinvents by hand. He adds content drawn from his life as an avid reader – always with multiple possible interpretations – thus incorporating deeper meaning in his cinematic worlds. Elements of Greek mythology, classical music, art history, and history coalesce in his images, which embrace the messiness, sorrow, and elation that is life. One is hard-pressed to imagine a more erudite, skilled, passionate, and cheeky soul.
In addition to a storied career in printmaking, since 2007 Milton has fearlessly produced artwork digitally. He now creates images using Adobe Photoshop in files consisting of more than two thousand layers, which are printed both as digital prints on paper and, for display on Led light boxes...
