EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print of a Portulan map representing the Mediterranean basin transports us back to the 16th century, showcasing the coasts of Italy, southern France, and northern Africa in intricate detail. The city of Venice, Marseille, and Budva (Montenegro) are highlighted on this historical map, emphasizing their importance as key ports in the region.
Created by Jacobus Russus in Messina in 1521, this Portulan offers a glimpse into the geographical knowledge and navigation techniques of the time. The careful craftsmanship and attention to detail make it a valuable artifact for understanding maritime trade routes and cultural exchanges during this period.
Venice's iconic canals, Marseille's bustling port, and Budva's strategic location are all depicted with precision on this map, providing insight into their significance as hubs of commerce and culture. From the coastlines of Corsica to Sicily to North Africa, every detail is meticulously rendered on this fascinating piece of cartography.
