Rare and good condition, Gothic-art shrine for standing or wall-hanging. This handsome and decorative, Gothic wall shrine is completely hand-crafted out of solid oak and it will look awesome, no matter where you decide to mount or place her. It must have taken its creator quite a few days to first draw this intricate design on paper and then hand carve the entire piece out of solid oak. The Gothic Style elements are deeply handcarved in both doors and they make this shrine highly decorative and an absolute joy to own and look at. This cabinet chapel (or chapel cabinet) comes with its brass lock in perfect working order and also with its original gothic style key. The handgrip is in fact a Gothic trefoil symbol (for the trinity). What also makes this piece extra attractive is the Gothic church window-like frame behind the doors. It is among the finest we have seen to date and on top of that this antique also has a beautiful and rich patina. By the way, the bronze Mary statuette is not included in our price. Finally, thanks to the hook in the back, mounting this antique chapel...

Africa Antiqua Antique Classical Map — Roman North Africa & Carthage, 1817 This finely engraved antique map titled Africa Antiqua presents a classical representation of North Africa as understood through ancient Greek and Roman geographic traditions. Published in London in 1827 by Wilkinson as part of the influential Atlas Classica, the map reflects early nineteenth-century scholarly attempts to reconstruct the ancient world through classical texts and historical geography. The composition focuses on the Mediterranean coastline of North Africa from the Strait of Gibraltar eastward through Mauretania, Numidia, Africa Proconsularis, Cyrenaica, and Egypt. Regions such as Hispania across the Mediterranean, Carthage and its surrounding territories, and the Atlas mountain ranges provide broader geographic context, illustrating the interconnected nature of the ancient Mediterranean world. Numerous classical place names and provincial divisions appear throughout, offering insight into Roman administrative geography and the cultural landscape of antiquity. Rendered in delicate copperplate engraving with original period hand coloring, the map displays refined linework and elegant typography characteristic of early nineteenth-century London atlas production. The restrained pastel palette enhances clarity while maintaining a sophisticated aesthetic suitable for both scholarly reference and decorative display. Maps depicting classical North Africa hold strong appeal among collectors for their intersection of Roman history, ancient trade routes, and Mediterranean cultural exchange. As part of Wilkinson’s Atlas Classica series, this example pairs beautifully with related plates illustrating the classical world, ancient Egypt, and biblical geography, making it particularly desirable within a curated thematic grouping. The wide horizontal format provides excellent wall presence and works especially well within gallery-style arrangements or academic interiors. Condition report: Good condition for age. Light age toning and occasional minor foxing typical of early nineteenth-century paper. Marginal wear consistent with atlas removal. Original hand color remains fresh and attractive. Framing tips: A dark walnut or ebonized frame with a generous ivory or warm-neutral mat emphasizes the classical palette and enhances readability while maintaining a refined museum-quality presentation. Technique: Copperplate engraving with original hand color Maker: Wilkinson, London, 1827 Important places and themes visible on the map: Africa Antiqua, ancient North Africa map...
