EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the stunning views of four diverse locations across different continents. The etching, created by Franz Hogenberg in the late 16th century, offers a glimpse into Aden (Yemen), Mombasa (Kenya), Kilwa Kisiwani (Tanzania), and Cefala Diana (Sicily, Italy). The image is part of the renowned Civitates Orbis Terrarum atlas, a groundbreaking collection of city maps published by Georg Braun and Franz Hogenberg between 1572 and 1617. It provides an invaluable historical record of these cities during that era. Each view transports us to a distinct corner of the world. From the bustling streets of Aden in Yemen to the vibrant coastal town of Mombasa in Kenya, we witness the unique architecture and cultural richness that defined these places centuries ago. Kilwa Kisiwani in Tanzania captivates with its ancient ruins and maritime heritage, while Cefala Diana on Sicily Island enchants with its picturesque landscapes and Italian charm. This print not only serves as a visual delight but also acts as a window into our past. It allows us to appreciate how these cities have evolved over time while preserving their individual identities. Luisa Ricciarini's skillful reproduction ensures that this piece remains accessible for all art enthusiasts to admire.
