Large Map of Russian Discoveries in Siberia, Alaska & the Bering Strait, 1784
Located in Langweer, NL
1784 Russian Discoveries in Siberia, Alaska & the Bering Strait - Gerhard Friedrich Muller
"Nouvelle Carte des Decouvertes Faites par des Vaisseaux Russiens Aux Cotes Inconnues de L'Amerique Septentrionale avec Les Pais Adiacents" is a seminal map by Gerhard Friedrich Muller, showcasing Russian discoveries in Siberia, Alaska, and the Bering Strait region. Originally published in 1754, this map served as a direct counter to Guillaume de L'Isle's speculative "fantasy" map of the same area, which prominently featured the fictitious Mer de l'Ouest (Sea of the West).
This edition, published in 1784 by the Imperial Academy of Sciences in St. Petersburg, reflects the substantial geographic knowledge gained through Russian explorations, particularly the voyages of Vitus Bering. It accurately depicts the northern Pacific coasts, focusing on Siberia, the Aleutian Islands, and the Alaskan coast. The hand-coloring remains vibrant, emphasizing key geographic details, and a richly decorated rococo cartouche adorns the upper right, indicating the map's origins.
This map is a significant artifact, illustrating the progression of cartographic accuracy and the influence of Russian expeditions in shaping the early knowledge of the North Pacific and Arctic regions.
The 1784 edition of Gerhard Friedrich Muller's map features the routes of key Russian voyages that explored the North Pacific, specifically those related to the exploration of Siberia, Alaska, and the Bering Strait. These include:
1. Vitus Bering's Voyages (1728 and 1741) - The map shows routes of Vitus Bering, a Danish explorer in the Russian Navy, who led two important expeditions:
- During his first Kamchatka Expedition (1728), Bering navigated through what is now known as the Bering Strait, proving that Siberia and Alaska were separated by a sea.
- His second Kamchatka Expedition (1741) extended further eastward to Alaska. This journey greatly expanded European knowledge of the northern Pacific and confirmed Alaska as part of the North American continent.
2. Aleksei Chirikov's Route (1741) - As part of the second Kamchatka Expedition, Aleksei Chirikov, who was Bering's second-in-command, led a separate ship and reached the Alaskan coast, discovering the southeastern parts of Alaska and providing further detailed knowledge of the area.
3. Russian Navigators in the Aleutian Islands - The map also shows the exploration routes in and around the Aleutian Islands, which were instrumental for Russian fur...

Impressive Decorative Engraved Map of the Red Sea and Arabian Peninsula, 1787
Located in Langweer, NL
This map, titled "Karte des arabischen Meerbusens oder des Rothen Meeres," is an original engraving from 1787 created by F. A. Schraembl, based on the cartographic work of d'Anville.
It is a partially colored copper engraving.
Key features and notable details of the map include:
1. The title is prominently displayed within a large, ornate cartouche, enhancing the aesthetic appeal and indicating the map's subject as the Red Sea (Rothen Meeres).
2. The map covers the Red Sea and its surrounding regions, including significant portions of the Arabian Peninsula and northeastern Africa.
3. There are two detailed inset maps:
- The first inset map shows the roadstead of the port of Suez (Rheede des Hafen von Sues).
- The second inset map depicts Bahr el Kolsum, the northwestern arm of the Red Sea, based on a map by De la Rochette from 1785.
4. Geographical Features: The map meticulously details the coastline, islands, and notable port cities along the Red Sea. The cartography highlights both natural and man-made features, with elevations and mountains represented through hachures.
5. Condition and Preservation: The map has a horizontal centerfold and is partially backed to prevent tears. The edges of the map sheet show minor holes, tears, and faint brown spots, yet it remains in overall good condition considering its age.
6. Historical Importance: This map is a valuable historical document, reflecting the cartographic knowledge of the late 18th century. It serves as a significant piece for collectors interested in antique maps, particularly those focusing on the Arabian Peninsula and maritime navigation in the Red Sea region.
The map shows the coastline of the Red Sea and the Arabian Peninsula, detailing regions and places along the western coast of Saudi Arabia and Yemen, as well as the eastern coast of Egypt and Sudan. Here are some of the most important places identified on the map:
1. Jeddah (Gedda): A major city and port on the western coast of Saudi Arabia, significant for its role as a gateway for pilgrims traveling to Mecca.
2. Mecca (Mekka): A holy city in Islam, located inland from the Red Sea, important for being the site of pilgrimage (Hajj) for Muslims.
3. Medina (Medina): Another important Islamic city, known for the Prophet's Mosque and being a key pilgrimage site.
4. Suez (Suess): Located at the northern end of the Red Sea, near the Suez Canal, it's a crucial link between the Mediterranean Sea and the Red Sea.
5. Aden: A port city in Yemen, located at the southern tip of the Arabian Peninsula, historically significant as a trading hub.
6. Mocha (Mokka): A port city in Yemen, historically known for being a major marketplace for coffee.
7. Sana'a: The capital city of Yemen, noted for its historical and cultural significance.
8. Bab el Mandeb: The strait connecting the Red Sea to the Gulf of Aden, crucial for maritime navigation.
These locations are critical due to their historical, religious, and economic significance, especially in terms of trade routes and pilgrimage sites. The map also illustrates the mountainous terrain and coastal features of the region.
The condition and preservation status, which, despite minor imperfections, is considered well-preserved for its age.
Overall, this map is a rare and valuable artifact, offering both historical insights and aesthetic appeal for collectors and enthusiasts of antique cartography.

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...
