The antique map titled ‘Insvla Qvae à Ioanne Mayen Nomen Sortita Est’ was created in 1665 and translates to ‘The Island which is named after Joahn Mayen’. It depicts Norway in the early 17th Century, showcasing the country’s rugged and mountainous terrain, along with its many rivers and fjords. The map also highlights the central location of Arendal, Kristiansand, and Vennesla. While the map does not provide specific details of the country’s cities and towns, it does offer a glimpse into the Norway of the past and the natural beauty that still characterises this stunning country today.

Giclée Print Feedback:
Absolutely stellar service! Whilst I was considering my purchase Callum was extremely helpful and friendly, taking the time to actually talk to me rather than keep to business – how refreshing and genuine! I made my purchase quite late in the evening and was surprised to receive notification that it had been dispatched the following day! Lo and behold, I received the print within 48 hours – a remarkably quick turnaround!
Certainly no need to worry about Christmas delivery times! As for the print I bought – perfect… exceptional quality, with fine detail captured without fault. It’s on nice thick paper and packaged with care. I’ll definitely be back for more – I’ve already eyed up my next one!
