EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a historical map titled "Persia, Georgia and Independent Tartary" from the renowned Atlas de Toutes les Parties Connues du Globe Terrestre by Guillaume Raynal. Published in 1780, this coloured engraving offers a fascinating glimpse into the geographical knowledge of that era. The intricate details on this map transport us to a time when Persia (modern-day Iran) held great significance as a regional power. The Caspian Sea dominates the center of the image, surrounded by neighboring countries such as Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Northern India. Further eastward lies Tibet, Bhutan, China, Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan - all forming part of what was then known as Independent Tartary. With its rich colors and precise engravings highlighting mountain ranges and rivers crisscrossing vast territories across Asia and the Middle East; this print is truly an artistic masterpiece. It serves not only as a visual representation but also as a testament to humanity's thirst for exploration and understanding of our world. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Fine Art Finder's private collection curated by Ken Welsh; we are reminded of how far cartography has come since its creation over two centuries ago. This photograph invites us to appreciate both the beauty inherent in ancient maps while acknowledging their limitations compared to today's advanced technology-driven mapping systems.
