This print showcases a mesmerizing detail from Giovanni Xenodocus da Corfu's nautical atlas, dating back to 1520. The artwork titled "The Red Sea" takes us on a historical journey through the Middle East, capturing the essence of cartography and exploration during that era. In this intricate ink-on-vellum masterpiece, da Corfu skillfully depicts the Red Sea region with meticulous attention to detail. The viewer is immediately drawn into a world of ancient charm and wonder. A palm tree gracefully sways in the foreground, symbolizing resilience amidst harsh conditions. As our gaze moves further into the image, we encounter an array of elements that transport us back in time. A tent stands proudly against the backdrop of sandy dunes, evoking images of nomadic tribes traversing these lands centuries ago. Nearby lies a bustling campsite where weary travelers find solace and respite before continuing their arduous journeys. The map itself serves as both an informative tool and a work of art.
