EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1565, offering a glimpse into the rich history of Brazil. The Portuguese map of Brazil beautifully illustrates the vastness and diversity of this South American country during the Renaissance period. As we delve deeper into this intricate artwork, our attention is drawn to a family of native Indians depicted within its borders. Intriguingly, one member of this indigenous family can be seen engaged in the meticulous process of harvesting brazilwood trees. These trees, most likely Caesalpinia echinata or Sappan species, hold great significance in Brazilian history as they were highly valued for their vibrant red dye known as "brazilin". This valuable resource played a crucial role in trade and commerce during that era. The map itself serves as both an informative tool and a work of art from the Age of Discovery. It showcases not only geographical features such as rivers but also provides insights into American Indian settlements across Brazil's vast landscape. As we explore this remarkable piece from The Granger Collection's archives, it invites us to reflect on Brazil's cultural heritage and its deep connection with nature. It reminds us that beyond being just lines on paper, maps have always been windows through which we can discover fascinating stories about our world and its diverse inhabitants.
