EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Moravia, Czech Republic" takes us back in time to the year 1596. Created by the renowned cartographer Gerardus Mercator, this print showcases his exceptional talent and attention to detail. The image is part of a larger collection known as "Atlas Ssive Corsmographicae Meditationes" which was published in Duisburg. The engraving depicts Moravia, a region located in what is now modern-day Czech Republic. Through intricate lines and delicate shading techniques, Mercator brings this historical landscape to life. The map provides an invaluable glimpse into the geography of Moravia during the 16th century. Luisa Ricciarini has preserved this remarkable piece of art in her private collection.

As we gaze upon this enchanting print, we are transported back centuries ago when maps were meticulously crafted by hand. It serves as a reminder of how far our understanding of geography has come while also celebrating the timeless allure of traditional cartography. This engraving invites us on a journey through time and space - an invitation that sparks curiosity about Moravia's rich history and cultural heritage.
