EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of cartographic history - the "Map of Montpellier" from Civitates Orbis Terrarum. Created by Georg Braun and Frans Hogenberg in Brussels in 1574, this coloured engraving offers a fascinating glimpse into the city's past. The intricate details depicted on this map transport us back to 16th-century Montpellier, revealing its architectural marvels and urban landscape. From the imposing walls that encircle the city to the grand churches and cathedral that dominate its skyline, every element is meticulously captured with precision. As we explore this birds-eye view of Montpellier, we are transported through time to an era when this French city was at its peak. The town plan provides insight into how people navigated these streets centuries ago, offering a unique perspective on urban planning during that period. This historical gem not only serves as an invaluable resource for researchers and historians but also captivates art enthusiasts with its exquisite engravings and attention to detail. It is a testament to the skillful craftsmanship of Joris Hoefnagel who reproduced it after Braun and Hogenberg's original work. Preserved within the Bibliotheque des Arts Decoratifs in Paris, France, this print allows us to appreciate both the beauty of Montpellier's architecture and gain deeper insights into our shared human history.
