EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing detail from the Galleria delle Carte Geografiche, created between 1580 and 1583 by the talented artist Egnazio Danti. Located in Vatican City's prestigious Vatican Museums and Galleries, this particular panel is known as "Piran". Commissioned by Pope Gregory XIII, this masterpiece consists of an impressive collection of 40 panels. In this specific section, we are transported to the enchanting coastal town of Piran, now situated in Slovenia. The intricate details bring to life a bustling scene featuring a majestic galleon sailing towards the fortress that guards the coastline. The map room depicted here exudes an air of grandeur and sophistication. The craftsmanship displayed in this artwork is truly remarkable; every stroke perfectly captures the essence of each element portrayed. From the ship's billowing sails to the imposing presence of the fortress overlooking Piran's picturesque landscape, one cannot help but be captivated by its beauty. This print allows us to appreciate Sally Greene's skillful capture of Danti's work while also immersing ourselves in history. It serves as a reminder that art has no boundaries or limitations when it comes to evoking emotions and transporting us through time and space.
