EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning celestial globe, created by Jacques de la Feuille in Amsterdam in 1700, is a true masterpiece of cartography from the 17th century. With a diameter of 68cm, it commands attention with its intricate details and exquisite craftsmanship. The wooden base and black background provide a striking contrast that enhances the ornate design of this celestial globe. Its vertical orientation allows for easy viewing and appreciation of the carefully plotted constellations, stars, and other celestial bodies. As we gaze upon this studio shot image, we are transported back in time to an era when exploration and discovery were at their peak. This celestial globe serves as both a symbol of guidance for travelers navigating uncharted territories and a testament to the rich history of physical geography. Intriguingly absent of people, this photograph invites us to ponder on the ideas it represents - curiosity about our place in the universe, fascination with distant lands yet to be explored, and admiration for artistry combined with scientific knowledge. It is worth noting that this particular piece was not produced by Joan Blaeu or associated with any commercial use. Instead, it stands as an authentic representation of historical cartography brought to life through meticulous artisanship. Whether you are an avid collector or simply appreciate fine art and craftmanship, this print captures the essence of exploration while adding elegance to any space it graces.
