EDITORS COMMENTS
This map print, titled "Burgos" from the atlas "Civitates Orbis Terrarum," was created by the renowned cartographers Georg Braun and Franz Hogenberg in the year 1576. The map is part of the extensive collection housed in the historic Salamanca University Library in Spain. The map provides an intriguing glimpse into the geography and topography of Castile and Leon, specifically the province of Burgos during the 16th century. The intricate detail and vibrant colors of the map bring the landscape to life, depicting a diverse range of landscapes, from rolling hills and lush fields to sprawling cities and bustling markets. The map features several notable landmarks, including the city of Burgos, situated at the heart of the region. The city is shown with its impressive cathedral, surrounded by defensive walls and fortifications. The map also highlights several other towns and villages, connected by winding roads and rivers. The rural areas of the map are filled with images of farmers and herdsmen tending to their livestock, with cattle and sheep grazing in the fields. The use of color adds depth and texture to the map, with different crops depicted in various shades of green and brown. This map is a testament to the remarkable cartographic skills of Braun and Hogenberg, who meticulously documented the world as it was known at the time. It offers a fascinating window into the history and culture of Castile and Leon during the late 16th century, providing valuable insights into the daily life and economic activities of the region.
