EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing print is a captivating snapshot of two distinct and historically significant cities during the Renaissance period. The image is taken from the seminal work of the renowned Flemish cartographer, Franz Hogenberg, titled "Civitatis Orbis Terrarum" or "The Cities of the World," published in 1590. The upper part of the print showcases the maps of Barcelona and Ecija, both meticulously detailed and richly illustrated. Barcelona, located on the northeastern coast of Spain, is depicted in its medieval splendor. The map highlights the city's fortifications, winding streets, and the iconic La Rambla, a popular gathering place even in the 16th century. The illustrations accompanying the map offer a glimpse into Barcelona's rich history, featuring images of the Cathedral of the Holy Cross and Saint Eulalia, the city's patron saint, as well as the bustling marketplace and the harbor. The map of Ecija, a city in southern Spain, is equally fascinating. Established as a Roman settlement, Ecija boasts an impressive Roman theater, which is depicted in the illustration. The map also reveals the city's fortifications, winding streets, and the presence of a castle, which served as the residence of the local bishop. The accompanying illustrations provide a glimpse into the daily life of the city's inhabitants, showcasing scenes of agriculture, industry, and leisure. Franz Hogenberg's "Civitatis Orbis Terrarum" was a groundbreaking work, featuring 540 maps and illustrations of cities around the world. This print is a testament to the meticulous research and artistic skill of Hogenberg and his team, offering a unique window into the history and culture of two fascinating cities during the Renaissance period.
