The Birthplace of Free Trade

We’re delighted to have our stand at TEFAF covered at such length by Fine Books Magazine.

Taking the striking frontispiece from Waghenaer’s Thresoor der zeevaert (1592) as inspiration, our exhibition includes a a Kussenkast (‘cushion cupboard’) filled with extraordinary maps, atlases, and scientific instruments.

From an Arabic astrolabe, to Blaeu’s monumental atlas, to a celestial globe, the art of the mapmaker will be on full display.
