EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of history - a 16th-century engraving titled "Map of Lisbon - Portugal". Created by the talented artist Franz Hogenberg, this map is part of the renowned collection called "Civitates Orbis Terrarum" by Georg Braun and Frans Hogenberg. The intricate details and precision in this engraving transport us back to a time when cartography was both an art form and a scientific endeavor. The viewer can marvel at the skillful rendering of Lisbon's streets, buildings, and landmarks as they appeared centuries ago. Lisbon, the capital city of Portugal, has always been known for its rich history and cultural heritage. This map allows us to explore the city through the eyes of those who lived during that era. It provides valuable insights into how Lisbon evolved over time. As we study this historical artifact closely, we are reminded of how far we have come in terms of technology and mapping techniques. Yet, there is something magical about these ancient engravings that continues to captivate our imagination. Thanks to Luisa Ricciarini's meticulous work in preserving this precious artwork, we can now appreciate it as if it were right before our eyes. This print serves as a testament to both her dedication as well as the enduring beauty found within historical maps like these.
