Stormy Scene in the Aegean Archipelago with Coastal Fortifications, circa 1680

About the Item

Title: Stormy Scene in the Aegean Archipelago with Coastal Fortifications, circa 1680 Description: This copperplate engraving illustrates a dramatic stormy maritime scene in the Aegean Archipelago, featuring ships battling rough seas near a rugged coastline. Coastal fortifications and mountainous landscapes dominate the background, while figures onshore react to the turbulent waters. The composition captures the peril of navigation in the Mediterranean during the 17th century. This engraving, attributed to Lucas Vorsterman as the engraver and Jan Peeters as the artist, is a vivid example of their collaborative work. Condition: Good condition with clear impressions and fine detail. Light foxing is visible, particularly in the margins, with minor edge wear and slight handling marks, but it does not detract from the overall visual appeal.
