18th Century Louis XVI Three-Panel Arched Screens
Located in Middleburg, VA
18th Century Louis XVI Three-Panel Arched Screens with Painted Floral and Architectural Motifs. An exquisite and rare set of three panel screens from the Louis XVI period, crafted in the South of France circa 1790. Each arched panel is meticulously hand-painted with neoclassical decorative motifs emblematic of the Louis XVI aesthetic, featuring garlands, musical and artistic trophies, scrolling foliage, and urns filled with delicate florals. The panels are arranged in harmonious symmetry, unified by their softly aged ochre-toned ground and framed in carved and gilded wood. The lower sections are adorned with stylized classical shell forms and acanthus flourishes, while the upper registers display suspended emblems- such as a painter's palette, hunting horn, and straw hat- each rendered with graceful trompe l'oeil illusion and entwined with ribbons. Executed in tempera or distemper on canvas over wood, the screens retain a remarkable original surface and patina, exhibiting the poetic elegance of late 18th-century Provincial craftsmanship. These striking architectural accents are suitable for refined interiors. These screens may be used as freestanding partitions, mounted wall art...

1794 Map of Jamaica by Bryan Edwards – Parishes, Plantations, Settlements
Located in Langweer, NL
1794 Bryan Edwards Map of Jamaica – Parishes, Plantations, Settlements This is an important antique map titled “A Map of the Island of Jamaica, Divided into Counties and Parishes,” created by Bryan Edwards in 1794. It was published in the second edition of his influential work *The History of the British West Indies*, which provided detailed insights into the geography, society, and economy of the Caribbean at the height of British colonial influence. The map meticulously depicts Jamaica divided into its traditional counties and parishes, each shaded to aid visual differentiation. Major settlements are clearly labelled, including Kingston, Montego Bay, Spanish Town, and Falmouth. The island’s intricate network of rivers, mountains, and coastal features are rendered with careful hachure and stipple shading to indicate elevation and terrain. Edwards uses small circular symbols to denote the locations of numerous sugar plantations that formed the backbone of Jamaica’s economy during this period, each plantation representing not only agricultural wealth but also the grim history of enslaved African labour central to the island’s prosperity. Further notations identify churches, barracks, forts, and ports, demonstrating the comprehensive utility of this map for historical research into colonial infrastructure. The map even marks Bryan...

Antique Carved and Painted Statue of St. Florian, Austria, circa 1700
Located in Dallas, TX
St. Florian (250 A.D. – 304 A.D.), was a the patron saint of firefighters, brewers, chimney sweeps, and the town of Linz, Austria. He served in the Roman army and part of his duties included organizing fire fighting brigades. He was secretly a Christian and became famous for miraculously saving a town from being destroyed by fire; after he prayed and threw a single bucket of water on the blaze, it was extinguished.

1726 Map of Bengal by Van der Aa after Valentijn – Dutch East Indies
Located in Langweer, NL
1726 Map of Bengal by Van der Aa after Valentijn – Dutch East Indies This is an original antique map titled “Nieuwe Kaart van ’t Koninryk van Bengale,” published by Pieter van der Aa in Leiden in 1726. The map depicts the Kingdom of Bengal and surrounding regions, based on earlier work by François Valentijn, a Dutch East India Company (VOC) official and historian whose extensive writings on Asia were among the most important early European sources. The engraving covers the Bengal region (modern-day Bangladesh and West Bengal, India), showing detailed river systems including the Ganges and its distributaries flowing into the Gulf of Bengal. Major towns, cities, and kingdoms are labelled in Dutch, such as Orixa (Orissa), Arracan, Tipera (Tripura), and Cos Assam (Assam). Mountain ranges are represented pictorially with stylised hachured peaks, while fertile plains are indicated with field patterns, adding visual texture to the map. In the upper right is an elegant title cartouche with dedication to VOC officials, referencing Mathijs van den Broecke, a director in Bengal, and Johannes Lennep. A compass rose is positioned at the bottom, enhancing its decorative maritime appeal, with north oriented to the right as typical for Dutch maps of Asian regions in this period. Pieter van der Aa (1659–1733) was a prolific publisher known for compiling maps from earlier explorers and engravers into elegant and collectible volumes. His works remain valued for their historical significance, decorative artistry, and connection to VOC trade networks and colonial history. Condition: Good condition. Strong impression with later hand colouring. Light age toning, faint foxing mainly in margins, and some creasing along original fold lines as issued. Fully suitable for framing. Framing tips: Frame this map in a slim gilt or dark wood frame to highlight its decorative hand colouring. Use an off-white archival mat to accentuate the engraving and protect the edges. UV-protective glazing is recommended to maintain colour vibrancy and paper integrity. Keywords block for your listing: bengal map...

Isle de Ladrones: Early 18th-Century Map of the Mariana Islands by F.

The map offers a simplistic yet stylized portrayal of the island, emphasizing its rugged and mountainous terrain, dotted with sparse vegetation and hills. The term *Isle de Ladrones* (Islands of Thieves) was given by the Spanish explorer Ferdinand Magellan in 1521 during his circumnavigation of the globe, as his crew encountered thefts from the native Chamorro people.
