EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the oldest map of Milan, edited by Antonio Lafreri in 1573. The intricate details and historical significance of this map make it a true treasure for both history enthusiasts and cartography aficionados. Antonio Lafreri, also known as Lafrery or Lanfrerius, was a renowned Italian engraver and publisher during the Renaissance period. His expertise in creating maps allowed him to beautifully capture the essence of Milan in this remarkable piece. Displayed at the Museum of Milan, this ancient map offers a glimpse into the city's past, revealing its layout and landmarks as they existed almost five centuries ago. As we study each delicate line and meticulously drawn street, we can imagine how life unfolded within these streets during that era. The attention to detail is truly astonishing; every building, bridge, and road is intricately depicted with precision. This masterpiece serves not only as a navigational tool but also as an artistic representation of Milan's architectural heritage. As we admire this historic artifact through Luisa Ricciarini's lens, we are transported back in time to witness the growth and development of one of Italy's most iconic cities. It reminds us that while time may pass and landscapes change, our connection to our roots remains strong through tangible pieces like this extraordinary map.
