EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable "Mappa Mundi" created in 1502 by Juan de la Cosa, a renowned Spanish cartographer and explorer. Crafted with gouache and pen & ink on paper, this masterpiece is currently housed at the Museo Naval in Madrid, Spain. Juan de la Cosa's historical significance cannot be overstated. He accompanied Christopher Columbus on his first three voyages to the New World and even owned the Santa Maria, one of Columbus' iconic ships. The "Mappa Mundi" itself holds immense value as it represents the oldest known European cartographic depiction of the New World. With its intricate details and vibrant colors, this map provides a fascinating glimpse into how Europeans perceived geography during the Renaissance era. It encompasses not only America but also regions such as Europe, Africa, and even parts of Asia. As an explorer who sailed to the New World seven times, Juan de la Cosa's firsthand experiences undoubtedly influenced his creation. This print allows us to appreciate both the artistry behind this historic map and its significant contribution to our understanding of early exploration. Whether you are fascinated by cartography or simply intrigued by tales of discovery in distant lands, this image transports you back in time to an era when brave explorers ventured into uncharted territories across vast oceans.
