EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable map of the Americas, created between 1590 and 1601 by renowned artists Bry, Theodor de and Bry, Johann Theodor de. Measuring at an impressive size of 35x25 cm, this engraving is part of a private collection that holds great historical significance. The image transports us back to the early seventeenth century when exploration and discovery were at their peak. A small group of intrepid men can be seen examining navigational equipment on this double-page world map. Their presence symbolizes the spirit of adventure and curiosity that defined this era. Among these explorers stands Cristobal Colon (Christopher Columbus), a legendary figure in history who played a pivotal role in discovering North America. This Italian artist's depiction pays homage to his significant contribution to geographic knowledge. The intricate details captured in black and white highlight the craftsmanship involved in creating this masterpiece. Every leaf on the map has been meticulously engraved by hand, showcasing the skillful artistry of European engravers from that time period. As we gaze upon this historic artwork, we are reminded of the great voyages undertaken during the late sixteenth century. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity and our unyielding desire for exploration even centuries ago. This print not only provides us with insight into our past but also serves as a reminder of how far we have come since then. It is truly an invaluable piece that captures both beauty and historical significance within its frame.
