EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Part of Tangier from above, without the Water-gate, 1670" takes us back to the vibrant cityscape of 17th century Tangier in North Africa. Created by Wenceslaus Hollar, a renowned Bohemian etcher, this heritage art piece showcases his remarkable talent for capturing intricate details. The image reveals a walled city with imposing fortifications that enclose the bustling metropolis. The city walls stand tall against the backdrop of the Mediterranean Sea, symbolizing both protection and connection to distant lands through trade and commerce. Sandwich Tower, an iconic landmark within Tangier's harbor area, proudly stands as a testament to its rich history. Hollar's meticulous etching technique brings out every architectural nuance of buildings scattered throughout the landscape. From castles to residential structures, each structure tells a story of centuries past. The absence of water-gate adds an air of mystery and intrigue to this already enchanting scene. As we gaze upon this monochromatic masterpiece, we are transported back in time—a journey that allows us to appreciate not only Tangier's geographical features but also its cultural significance as a gateway between continents. This print serves as a window into another era while reminding us of the enduring beauty found in historical art forms. Displayed at The Met museum or any other esteemed institution dedicated to preserving our collective heritage; it is an invaluable treasure that connects us with our roots and invites contemplation on how cities evolve over
