C Glotch - Rare engraving from Atlas Marianus 1702. The ancient copper engraving Christoph Glotsch was based on a design by Iohannes Degler from Atlas Marianus by Heinrich Scherer . Nuremberg 1702. Inscription reads: Modernus Suecorum Genivs, Actiones et Institvta (Modern Swedish Genius, Actions and Institutions) This ancient print assembles the characteristics of the Kingdom of Sweden in a single allegory. The writings highlight how the sea is so generous whilst the land is severe; so imposing is the military fleet of King Charles XII and so abundant are the fish that his fishing boats catch, but harsh is the land on which the armies fight for the few riches, such as iron mines with which weapons are forged and silver mines with which coins are minted. In the background appear the palace and churches of Stockholm. Size: 7.7in x 9.6in (19.5cm x 24.5cm) The print is in excellent condition but please inspect the image carefully for any age related marks
