Pierre Frey | Planisphere – Nutmeg

Planisphere reproduces ancient world maps from seventeenth-century Holland, the great age of Dutch cartography, with the protector gods of water and earth watching over the globe. Maps of that period were as much art as science — engraved, allegorical, magnificently ornamented — and at wall scale the effect is a study made grand. It gives a room the particular romance of a world still being charted.
