FAQs

Seventeenth-century Dutch cartography represents a era during the Dutch Golden Age when mapmakers like Joan Blaeu produced highly detailed, decorative maps using copperplate printing, often finished with hand colouring.

These maps were printed on heavy rag paper made from cotton or linen fibres using black ink from engraved copper plates, and were subsequently hand painted with water-based pigments.

Authentic prints feature a visible plate mark impression around the border created by the copperplate press, chain lines and watermarks in the laid paper, and a vertical centre fold if originally bound in an atlas.

Framed antique maps work well as focal points above sideboards, integrated into gallery walls, or displayed in traditional studies and libraries to add historical interest.

Keep paper prints away from direct sunlight and high humidity, framing them behind UV-filtering glass with acid-free mounting materials to prevent discolouration and deterioration.
