VISUAL DESCRIPTION
A vibrant manuscript illustration captures attention with its concentric circles filled with meticulous calligraphy—an exemplar of medieval scholasticism known as a Mappa Mundi (Map of the World). At its center sits Jerusalem, reflecting historical perceptions where this city was considered the world's spiritual heart. Surrounding rings contain information ranging from biblical events to depictions of known lands interspersed with mythical creatures symbolizing uncharted territories' mysteries during that era. Such maps were less navigational tools than visual encyclopedias conveying how people understood their place within a cosmological framework.
