EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving, titled "Plan of the city of Montpellier, 1572" takes us on a journey back in time to the vibrant streets of this French city during the 16th century. Created by renowned German cartographers Georg Braun and Franz Hogenberg, this print offers a detailed depiction of Montpellier's urban landscape. The intricate lines and delicate colours bring to life the bustling cityscape that once thrived within these walls. Every street, square, and building is meticulously illustrated, showcasing the architectural beauty that characterized Montpellier during this era. From grand churches to humble residences, each structure tells a story of its own. As we explore this historical map further, it becomes evident that Braun and Hogenberg were not only skilled cartographers but also talented artists. Their attention to detail is remarkable; every tree seems to sway gently in the breeze while tiny figures animate the scene with their daily activities. Preserved within Biblioteca Universidad in Salamanca, Spain, this engraving serves as a testament to both artistic prowess and historical documentation. It was part of an extensive collection known as "Civitatis Orbis Terrarum" edited by Gottfried Kempesen over several volumes from 1572-1618. Through Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder platform, we are fortunate enough to witness this piece firsthand. Let us marvel at its beauty and appreciate how it transports us back centuries ago when Montpellier was just beginning its journey towards becoming one of France
