EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite detail and artistry of "Novissima et Accuratissima Totius Americae Descriptio" by Nicolaes Visscher. Created in 1648, this colour engraving offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of cartography during the Age of Discovery. Measuring at an impressive 53.7x42.9 cm, this topographical map transports us to a time when exploration and surveying were paramount. The image is alive with activity as ships sail across vast oceans, carrying explorers on their quest for new lands and riches. Native Americans are depicted alongside settlers, providing insight into the diverse cultures that inhabited America at that time. The attention to detail is truly remarkable; every land formation, species of wild animal, and provision necessary for long voyages is meticulously illustrated. The cartouche adds an elegant touch to the composition while serving as a visual marker for important geographical information. As we gaze upon this historic piece, we can't help but be reminded of Cornelio Witsen's influential atlas which greatly contributed to our understanding of the Americas. This print captures not only a moment in history but also serves as a testament to human curiosity and ambition. Displayed proudly in private collections around the world, this artwork continues to inspire awe and admiration for both its artistic merit and its contribution to our knowledge of geography and exploration.
