EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and detailed coloured engraving captures a breathtaking view of the city of Burgos, as depicted in the renowned work Civitates Orbis Terrarum. Created by German School artists in the 16th century, this print showcases the beauty and charm of northern Spain's countryside. The image transports us to a time when life was simpler, offering glimpses into daily routines and pastoral scenes. From its hilltop vantage point, we can see rooftops dotting the landscape, nestled against rolling hills and verdant fields. The red hues of the buildings add warmth to this picturesque setting. Intriguingly, shepherds tend to their flocks amidst this idyllic panorama. Their presence reminds us that everyday life intertwines with nature's rhythms even within bustling towns like Burgos. A majestic castle complex stands proudly atop one hill—a reminder of historical fortifications that once protected these lands. With incredible attention to detail, this engraving invites viewers to immerse themselves in an enchanting world reminiscent of fairy tales. It evokes a sense of wonderment at both natural beauty and human ingenuity—the perfect fusion between man-made structures and harmonious landscapes. Preserved within Biblioteca Universidad in Salamanca, Spain, this artwork is part of Braun's grand vision for Civitates Orbis Terrarum—an atlas celebrating cities across Europe. Through his collaboration with Hogenberg on engravings like these, they have left behind an enduring legacy that continues to captivate audiences centuries later.
