Title: Port Scene at Ladimiti in the Aegean Archipelago with Fortifications, ca. 1680
Description: This copperplate engraving depicts a bustling port scene at Ladimiti (likely Lemnos) in the Aegean Archipelago. The composition features docked ships, a fortified harbor, and an active marketplace with figures engaged in trade and daily activities. Prominent architectural elements include a classical statue, cannons overlooking the water, and fortified towers. The engraving, attributed to Jan Peeters and published by Jacob Peeters, reflects the lively commercial and strategic significance of Mediterranean ports in the 17th century.
Condition: Good condition with strong impressions and well-preserved details. Light foxing is present, mostly in the margins, with minor handling marks. Slight edge wear but does not detract from the overall appearance.
