This antique map, created in 1665, is titled ‘Episcopatus Iacensis Vulgo Iaca’, which translates to ‘Bishopric of Jaca commonly known as Jaca’. It depicts the region of Jaca, located in the province of Huesca in northeastern Spain, with the town of Santa Cruz de la Serós at its centre.

Spain in the early 17th Century was a powerful empire with vast territories in the Americas, but domestically it was facing economic and political challenges. The country was ruled by the Habsburg dynasty, with King Philip III on the throne until 1621 when he was succeeded by his son, Philip IV. The period saw Spain involved in numerous conflicts, including the Thirty Years’ War and the Franco-Spanish War, with France being a major rival. Despite these challenges, Spain continued to be a cultural and artistic hub, with renowned artists such as Velázquez and writers such as Cervantes flourishing during this

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!
