Created by the talented French cartographer Guillaume Le Testu in 1555, this watercolor on paper artwork offers a detailed depiction of the northern regions of Europe. The map showcases an array of fascinating geographical features, including Scandinavia, Northern Russia, Finland, Norway, Greenland, and the Scandinavian Sea. Its intricate design and meticulous attention to detail provide valuable insights into how these lands were perceived during that period. Le Testu's expertise is evident in his skillful rendering of coastlines and rivers as well as his precise placement of cities and landmarks. The vibrant colors used bring life to this historical document while highlighting its artistic value. As we explore this ancient map, we are transported to a time when exploration was at its peak.
