16th Century Nautical Portolan Chart

This beautifully illustrated 16th Century Portolan Chart showcases the Mediterranean and parts of the European coastline, offering a glimpse into early maritime navigation. Decorated with ornate compass roses and iconic medieval city symbols, this map is an essential tool used by sailors to traverse the seas. Portolan charts were vital during the Age of Exploration, highlighting the importance of accurate sea routes and geographical knowledge. The artistry of this map, combined with its functionality, reflects the craftsmanship of cartographers of the time, making it a valuable piece for those interested in maritime history and vintage maps.

I personally digitally restore and clean up the original scanned image, adjusting colors, exposure, and fixing blemishes to produce a high-quality print. However, to maintain the vintage look and historical accuracy, I retain some imperfections.

What Makes My Prints Different

Sure, you might find similar prints elsewhere, but not all prints are equal. I use a high-end lab with professional photo printers, high-quality archival inks, and acid-free archival Lustre paper—a premium, heavier paper offering vibrant colors with a fingerprint-resistant, glare-free matte finish. Prints are available in all popular sizes; select your size when ordering. Please note that listing photos are low resolution, but high-resolution files are used for printing. Prints are unframed; frames shown are for illustration purposes only.

Shipping

Prints are carefully packaged to prevent damage during transit. They are shipped flat in a rigid box or rolled in a sturdy mailing tube, depending on size. Please refer to the shop’s policies for additional shipping information.
