EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-coloured engraving, titled "Map of Africa and the Arabian Peninsula" is a true masterpiece by the renowned Flemish artist Abraham Ortelius. Measuring 37x43.5 cm, this historic map showcases Ortelius' exceptional cartography skills and attention to detail. The vibrant colours used in this print bring life to the sovereign kingdoms of Africa and Arabia, highlighting their majestic coastlines and natural spaces. The intricate Latin text adds an air of authenticity to this piece, making it a valuable resource for navigational purposes during its time. As you explore this map, you will notice an inset featuring North Africa and the Arabian Peninsula, providing a closer look at these regions. The dedication put into every engraved line reflects Ortelius' commitment to accuracy and precision. One cannot help but be drawn to the fascinating historical context surrounding this artwork. It transports us back in time when monarchs ruled with majesty over vast territories, as depicted by royal figures on horseback or atop elephants – symbols of power and grandeur. Ortelius' Map of Africa and the Arabian Peninsula is not only a testament to his artistic talent but also serves as a window into our past. Its detailed representation of landmasses, coastlines, and maritime routes offers invaluable insights into geography during that era. This remarkable print from Bridgeman Images captures both the beauty of nature's landscapes as well as humanity's quest for knowledge through exploration.
