1. CARTE PARTICULIERE DE VIRGINIE, MARYLAND, PENNSILVANIE, LA NOUVELLE IARSEY ORIENT ET OCCIDENTALE. Alexis-Hubert Jaillot. Published by Pierre Mortier, Amsterdam. Copper plate engraving, c. 1700. Image size 20 3/8 x 31 3/8" (516 x 796 mm). An important and quite beautiful chart of the mid-Atlantic coast line.

Shown is an area from Staten Island in New York southward to Carratuck Inlet in North Carolina with the Chesapeake Bay featured prominently. This chart is by A.H. Jaillot, and appeared in the atlas "Suite du Neptune Francois‌" This atlas was published by Pierre Mortier for Jaillot. Cartographically, this map is a very close copy of John Thornton & William Fisher's chart of 1689 that appeared in "The English Pilot, The Fourth Book," which in turn was largely based on the hugely important and rare Augustine Herrman map. This is a very nice example of this scarce chart. Very good condition save for some areas of strengthening on the verso due to verdigris, an acidic green pigment. Original outline hand coloring with some modern enhancing. Fig. 23, p. 37 in On the Map, Maryland and the Chesapeake Bay. #7903-2 $8,500.

Our History The Old Print Gallery was established in historic Georgetown in 1971 by three partners, James C. Blakely, James von Ruster and Judith Blakely. The Blakelys had dreamed of a print gallery for some time. In fact, they spent their 1969 honeymoon on a print-buying expedition in New York City. But in Washington, both antiquarian book dealers and galleries warned them that the city would not support an antique print gallery. Others had tried and not succeeded. Undaunted, they opened in April with little fanfare and were gratified when they grossed several hundred dollars their first day.

During the early years, Washington was a hotbed of frenetic political activity, from anti-Vietnam demonstrations to the Watergate break-in.

Activists and reformers poured into the city, many finding their way to The Old Print Gallery, perhaps as a respite from the turmoil around them.

Focused on antique historical and decorative prints, the gallery quickly grew into one of the James Blakely and James von Ruster 1979. largest, most diverse and respected print shops in the U.S.. It evolved into a knowledgeable resource for private collectors, public institutions and corporate collections. To increase and improve gallery offerings, Judy undertook numerous buying trips, sometimes two-week forays to New England, sometimes short jaunts to the South and Midwest. Eventually she traveled abroad, to England and the Continent.

She bought significant prints at New York auctions, schlepping them back on the Metroliner. All the while, James Blakely was charming visitors at the gallery with elaborate explanations and tales about the prints on display. It was his vision and enthusiasm that kept the gallery pushing forward. By 1974, the gallery was issuing illustrated catalogs nationwide.

During the high-flying 1980s, the gallery expanded into antique maps and began providing appraisal and paper conservation services. James von Ruster set up the conservation lab and became an expert at creating and using paper pulp to fill holes and deep cracks. One client was astounded after James rejoined separated pieces of a large-folio Currier and Ives city view, inpainting losses with such skill that the repairs could only be seen on the reverse.

James also oversaw the custom frame shop, which educated clients on the importance of preservation framing.

The gallery facilitated the growth of several important collections, particularly in the areas of Washingtoniana, Western Americana and historic prints. It provided artwork for major government venues, including the National Portrait Gallery, State Department and the U.S. Capitol. Movie directors came calling as well. Ken Burns used maps and prints from The Old Print Gallery for his Civil War epic. The partners also brokered the sale of private collections, including one of the largest color-plate book libraries of the period.

Throughout the 1990s and early 21st century, the gallery continued in good times and bad, even after the death of James Blakely in 1992. In 2006, The Old Print Gallery merged with The Old Print Shop of New York City. Mr. Von Ruster and Mrs. Blakely viewed this move as the best way for The Old Print Gallery to continue to serve art collectors, both local and national. It also enabled the gallery to expand its inventory by offering 20th century and contemporary American prints to its clients.

31. PLATE 17. LEMON. Maria Sibylla Merian. Published by Joanem Oosterwyk, Amsterdam. Counterproof from engraved plate, 1719. A fine "counterproof" imprint from Merian's finest work "Dissertatio de Generatione et Metamorphosibus Insectorum Surinamensium." Peter Dance in "The Art of Natural History", refers to this series as "easily the most magnificent work on insects so far produced... combining science and art in equal proportions...." A counterproof is a technique of pulling an impression from a freshly printed image that has just been removed from a press, before the ink has been allowed to dry. This process allows the artist to closely replicate the original drawing (as the counterproof would be oriented in the same direction, show no plate marks, and depict only lightly inked lines). This made them highly suitable for coloring, with the end result being as close to the original watercolor as possible. This technique was difficult, time consuming and expensive, making production a deluxe or very special edition. Prints such as these were usually reserved for a select few subscribers. This particular edition is rarely seen on the market. Paper size 20 5/8 x 13 3/4" (524 x 350mm). Good condition save for two small dark spots in paper.

Our History Mr. von Ruster retired in 2010 and Mrs. Blakely greatly reduced her hours in 2011. The gallery continues under the direction of Laura Graham, offering the finest prints and maps to both sophisticated and new collectors.

After creating a formal exhibition space to display and promote contemporary and early 20th century works, the gallery began presenting shows. The first opened in September of 2010, featuring kaleidoscopic modified aerial photographs by DC’s renegade cartographer, Nikolas Schiller (see page 23). For the event, richly detailed antique maps were hung on one side of the gallery and Schiller’s contemporary cartographic creations on the other. This playful pairing of new and old set the foundation for the gallery’s future approach to prints and maps.

As a venue for contemporary art, the gallery has attracted participation of notable local printmakers, such as Susan Goldman, Jake Muirhead and Philip Bennet, as well as many supplied by The Old Print Shop. Besides gallery openings, we have hosted printmaking workshops and artist talks. Stretching the range of the venue, we recently presented a show of bronze figures and prints by Italian-based sculptor Robert Cook.

To share the exciting changes and events occurring at the gallery, as well as showcase its fine selection of prints, The Old Print Gallery began a blog (www.oldprintgallery.wordpress.com) in the winter of 2010. Visitors to the blog find weekly features such as Past/Present, a pairing of two complimentary prints from both our antique and contemporary holdings. We also interview artists about their inspiration and techniques, highlight new additions to our collection and announce upcoming events and shows.

The gallery will continue to serve the Washington art community and beyond, introducing new and noteworthy printmakers, while furthering knowledge of significant and collectable historical works and maps. It is this celebration of both old and new that makes the Old Print Gallery a distinctive art destination.
