EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunningly intricate and colorful print is a chart, or map, extracted from the atlas "Atlas de Portugal e das Terras do Sul e Ocidente" (Atlas of Portugal and the Lands of the South and West), created by Fernão Vaz Dourado in 1571. The chart, specifically Chart 1, focuses on Northern Europe during the Renaissance era. This miniature painting, a testament to the artistic and cartographic prowess of the time, is part of the National Archive of the Tower of the Tombo in Lisbon, Portugal. The chart is filled with vibrant hues, meticulously drawn borders, and rich heraldic symbols representing various European countries. The map includes the United Kingdom and Ireland, with the British Isles depicted in detail. To the north, the Scandinavian countries of Sweden, Norway, and Denmark are shown, along with Iceland and its icelanders. The Eastern European countries of Russia and its people are also represented, reflecting the expanding knowledge and reach of the Portuguese during the early modern era. The chart's horizontal format and the use of color make it a valuable resource for understanding the geography and political landscape of Northern Europe during the 16th century. This illuminated manuscript is a testament to the artistic and cartographic achievements of the time and provides a fascinating glimpse into the history and culture of Europe during the Renaissance.
