The image is a detail from the portulan of Castellini, an ancient geographical map that showcases the intricate fortifications and stunning view of this historic city. Created by an unknown artist during this era, it now resides within the esteemed Istituto e Museo di Storia della Scienza in Florence, Italy. The photograph beautifully captures the essence of Rhodes' harbor, with its bustling activity and vibrant atmosphere.
