EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a historical gem, the "Map of the island of Puerto Rico, 1599" by Samuel de Champlain. Preserved by the Royal Commonwealth Society in London, UK, this French masterpiece takes us back to an era long gone. The map's intricate details transport us to Cabo Rojo, where lush trees sway gently under the Caribbean sun. As we delve deeper into this artwork, our eyes are drawn to scenes of adventure and exploration. A group of natives can be seen engaged in a thrilling boar hunt amidst the dense foliage. Their skilled hunting techniques are evident as they navigate through this vibrant landscape. One intriguing aspect is that Champlain has ingeniously depicted his compass upside down on this map.
