EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-colored print titled "A new and correct map of the world laid down according to the newest discoveries and from the most exact observations" showcases Hermann Moll's exceptional cartographic skills. Created in 1736, this masterpiece measures 64x101 cm and is currently housed at the New York Public Library in the USA. Dedicated to George II, this meticulously detailed map transports us back to an era of exploration and maritime adventure. With its intricate depiction of coastlines, hydrography, sea charts, and celestial bodies, it offers a comprehensive view of our planet during that time. The vibrant colors bring life to continents like America while highlighting shipping routes across vast oceans. This visual representation not only serves as a navigational tool but also sparks curiosity about distant lands waiting to be discovered. Moll's expertise shines through as he accurately portrays longitude and latitude lines, allowing sailors to navigate with precision. The inclusion of planets adds an element of wonderment, reminding viewers that Earth is just one piece within a vast universe waiting for further exploration. As we gaze upon this historic artifact from centuries past, we are reminded of humanity's insatiable thirst for knowledge and discovery. It stands as a testament to mankind's relentless pursuit of understanding our world – both terrestrial and celestial – through meticulous cartography.
