Faksimili starih karata - kič ili umjetnost

The discussion of facsimiles, their purpose and use, the standards for facsimile maps, methods of their production, etc., serves to provide the answer to the basic question: Are facsimiles of old maps kitsch or art? It is clear that the answer is not a straightforward one. namely, we must compare quantities and qualities of esthetical and visual components on one hand, and emotional, expressive, and artistic values on the other. This quaestion even impies another question: Is a facsimile of a map, which is undoubtedly an artistic act, also a work of art, or only pseudo art? The answer lies in the editorial treatment of the facsimile edition. If the editor respects the definition, the standards and the adequate procedures of production, then the facsimile of an old map considerably surpasses kitsch and comes close to having a real artistic value.
