Description
Nouvelle carte pour conduire à la connoissance de la Marine et à démontrer la plus part des instruments qui servent à cet art et à connoitre la construction des vaisseaux et les agrets pour servir à acquérir cette connoissance avec des remarques”. Sailing War Ship and marine navigation instruments chart by Henry Abraham Chatelain, published in 1712, in his “Atlas Historique, ou nouvelle introduction a l’histoire, a la chronologie & a la geographie ancienne & moderne.” The engraved and hand-coloured chart describes basics of shipbuilding and nautical instruments and has a numbered identification key for over 100 parts of the sailing ship. Smaller inset engravings show a wind rose, several types of ship, methods of naval combat, compass, sextant and quadrant.
Henry Abraham Chatelain (1684-1743) was a Huguenot pastor, originally from Paris. He is best know as a Dutch cartographer and engraver, and an author of monumental work in seven volumes “Atlas Historic”, published in Amsterdam between 1705 and 1720. The atlas included 285 engraved maps, charts and views, as well as accompanying texts, on geography, history, ethnology, heraldry and cosmography.
This poster is a high quality “giclee” reproduction of a painstakingly restored antique original, custom-printed on Standard Single-weight Matt Coated art paper 140gsm or Heavyweight Matt Coated art paper 230gsm (more of a thin card density), or superb Epson Matt Canvas 320gsm, according to your choice. We use the latest UltraChromeHDX pigment inks which guarantee 60 years of colour permanence (up to 200 years fade-proof for colour prints). This poster is suitable for mounting and framing, as well as direct display on a wall.
IMPORTANT: If you are going to frame this print we recommend art paper 230gsm or canvas 320gsm. The 140gsm art paper option makes sense if you wish to DIY-frame or to tack the poster to a wall without framing, due to it being lighter and more flexible. All three options are giclee prints of the same high quality.
POSTER PRINT QUALITY
Please note that our reproduction posters are made to order and every print is checked before posting. The images we use in most cases are scans of antique originals, professionally restored in order to remove the most evident stains, folds, tears and other damage. We strive to balance the restoration and saving the overall integrity and antique appearance of the original. Our restored images are unique and these prints can be purchased only from www.VictorianMaps.com.
There will be no watermark on your image but there might be a white border depending on aspect ratio of the original. Please note that when a large antique original is reduced to a smaller size print some text may not be readable. Please check our measurements: every poster has its own aspect ratio same as original and printed exactly as pictured.
