About the Item
The "Ducatus Pomeraniae" is a historical map depicting the Duchy of Pomerania, a region that straddles the modern border between northeastern Germany and Poland. Crafted with ornamental flair, this map is not only a navigational tool but also a work of art, featuring an elaborate cartouche—a decorative emblem or frame typically bearing the map's title and other details.
Published by P. Schenk jr., this map showcases the geographical knowledge of the area at the time of its creation. The intricate details of the coastline, river systems, forests, towns, and division of political territories reveal the cartographic precision achieved by mapmakers of the era. The decorative elements, likely rich with allegorical and symbolic imagery, would have been intended to both beautify the map and reflect the cultural and political significance of the region.
As a historical document, the map serves as an important record of Pomerania's landscape and political boundaries at a specific point in history, offering insights into the region's physical and administrative conditions. The map would be of particular interest to historians, geographers, and collectors, providing a window into the past and the cartographic traditions of the time.
