EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of history - the Map of Goa, a flourishing Portuguese colony in the Indian peninsula during the 17th century. Crafted with intricate detail and precision, this cartographic masterpiece offers a glimpse into an era defined by colonialism and exploration. The map's horizontal layout beautifully captures the topography of Goa, situated on a scenic peninsula along India's coastline. Every stroke and contour meticulously depicts the geographical features that made this Portuguese colony so strategically significant. As we delve into its rich details, we are transported back to 1635 when European powers were vying for dominance in far-flung lands. The illustration and painting techniques employed here bring life to this historical artifact, allowing us to marvel at how early cartographers skillfully captured their world. What makes this image truly fascinating is its absence of people; it invites us to ponder upon the impact of colonialism on indigenous populations while appreciating the artistry behind these maps. It serves as both a reminder of our complex past and an opportunity for reflection on how geography has shaped our present-day world. This extraordinary photograph from Universal Images Group (UIG) encapsulates not only an important chapter in human history but also celebrates the artistry and craftsmanship involved in creating such invaluable pieces of cartography
