EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of the Canary Islands, as depicted in The New Atlas from 1645. Created by an unknown Dutch School artist during the 17th century, this engraving showcases the beauty and allure of these stunning islands. The image transports us to a time when galleons sailed across vast oceans, exploring new territories and mapping uncharted lands. The intricate details within the engraving highlight not only the natural landscape but also provide insight into European exploration during that era. The focal point of this artwork is undoubtedly the Canary Islands themselves, with their distinctive shape and rugged terrain. Nestled amidst a sea of waves, these islands stand tall and proud, inviting viewers to explore their hidden treasures. A cartouche adorns one corner of the print, adding an air of authenticity to this historical document. It serves as a testament to meticulous craftsmanship and attention to detail prevalent in maps from that period. As we gaze upon this enchanting scene, we are reminded of Europe's rich history intertwined with these idyllic islands. From Gran Canaria to Tenerife, each island holds its own unique charm that has captivated explorers for centuries. Bridgeman Images has once again curated a remarkable piece that allows us to delve into history through art. This print serves as both a visual delight and an educational tool for those seeking knowledge about European exploration in centuries past.
