EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the iconic "WALDSEEMULLER: WORLD MAP" created by Martin Waldseemuller and Laurens Fries in 1535. A true masterpiece of the Renaissance era, this map offers a glimpse into the Age of Discovery and the expanding knowledge of our world during that time. Printed at Strassburg, this historic artifact reveals an intriguing blend of accuracy and speculation. The map portrays a continent-centric view with Europe taking center stage, while only hinting at the existence of the New World on its left side. This subtle inclusion reflects the limited understanding Europeans had about these uncharted territories during that period. The attention to detail is remarkable as intricate rivers meander across continents, symbolizing their importance for trade and exploration. Each stroke meticulously captures both geographical features and cultural nuances, showcasing Waldseemuller's expertise as a cartographer. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back in time to an age where curiosity fueled expeditions across vast oceans in search of new lands and treasures. It serves as a testament to humanity's insatiable thirst for knowledge and discovery. With its rich historical significance, this print from Granger Art on Demand allows us to appreciate not only the beauty but also the profound impact that maps like these have had on shaping our understanding of our planet throughout history.
