EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of cartographic history, featuring the Map of Genoa and Florence from Civitates Orbis Terrarum by Georg Braun and Franz Hogenberg. Created in the 16th century, this engraving offers a glimpse into Italy's rich past. The intricate details captured in this studio shot transport us back to an era when maps were meticulously crafted by hand. The mountainous landscape of Italy serves as a majestic backdrop, while the townscape reveals the architectural beauty of both Genoa and Florence. As we explore this historical artifact, our eyes are drawn to a sailing boat gracefully navigating its way along the river. This small element adds depth and movement to an otherwise still image, reminding us of Italy's strong maritime heritage. The manuscript-like quality of this print evokes a sense of reverence for knowledge and exploration during that time period. It is evident that every stroke was carefully etched onto paper with precision and dedication. With no people present in the scene, our focus shifts towards appreciating the artistry behind this map. The horizontal composition allows us to fully immerse ourselves in its vastness, while also highlighting important geographical features such as rivers and land horizons. Overall, this print not only captures a moment frozen in time but also invites us to delve into centuries-old stories woven within its lines.
