The antique map titled ‘Insvlae Divi Martini et Vliarvs’ was created in 1665 and depicts the islands of Saint Martin and Île d’Oléron, as well as the surrounding areas. France in the early 17th century was a powerful European nation, with a strong monarchy and a thriving economy based primarily on agriculture and trade. The country was still recovering from the devastating Wars of Religion, which had ended in 1598 with the Edict of Nantes, granting religious tolerance to the Protestant minority. Despite these challenges, France was still a major player on the world stage, with a formidable navy and a growing colonial empire in the Americas. The map itself may show important coastal towns such as Saint-Denis-d’Oléron, La Rochelle, and Fouras, but the details are left to the imagination.

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!
