EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the year 1511, offering a glimpse into the early exploration of the Caribbean. The map depicted here is not just any ordinary map; it holds historical significance as the first one to showcase Bermuda. Its intricate details also reveal the coastline features of Guanaca in Honduras and an island labeled Isla de Beimenhi, which we now know as Florida. The origins of this remarkable piece can be traced back to Peter Martyr's book De Orbe Novo, specifically its 1511 edition. Martyr, a Spanish scholar and historian, played a crucial role in documenting and disseminating knowledge about the New World during that era. As we delve into this image, we are transported to an age when navigation was still in its infancy. It serves as a testament to human curiosity and determination to explore uncharted territories. The map's inclusion of text further emphasizes its importance as both a navigational tool and an educational resource for those venturing into these unknown waters. Granger Art on Demand has beautifully preserved this historical artifact through their expert printing techniques. This print allows us to appreciate not only the artistry involved but also provides valuable insights into our past. Let this image transport you back centuries ago when brave explorers set sail towards new horizons amidst vast stretches of water and land waiting to be discovered.
