This print showcases a remarkable detail from a Renaissance map of Europe, created by the talented Jacopo Russo in 1528. The focus of this particular section is Egypt and the Red Sea, offering us a glimpse into the intricate cartography of that era. In the center of attention stands Hadım Suleiman Pasha, an influential Ottoman statesman and military commander who held significant positions in both Ottoman Egypt and the empire as a whole. The artist's meticulous attention to detail allows us to appreciate not only the geographical accuracy but also the historical significance embedded within this artwork. Hadım Suleiman Pasha's presence on this map symbolizes his immense power and influence during that period. As we explore this Renaissance masterpiece, we are transported back in time to witness an era where maps were not merely tools for navigation but also works of art that conveyed political messages.
