EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the year 1596, showcasing an exquisite engraving of Brandenburg and Berlin, Germany. Created by the renowned cartographer Gerardus Mercator, this detailed map offers a fascinating glimpse into the geography of the region during that era. The engraving is part of an esteemed private collection and holds historical significance as it was featured in "Atlas Ssive Corsmographicae Meditationes" a renowned atlas book published by Mercator himself. The intricate craftsmanship and attention to detail are evident in every line and curve, revealing his mastery in cartography. Brandenburg (Brandenburg) and Berlin are depicted with utmost precision, providing viewers with a visual representation of these German territories as they existed over four centuries ago. This rare piece also includes Marca Brandeburgensis and Pomerania from 1633, further enriching its historical value. Luisa Ricciarini has skillfully captured this remarkable engraving through her lens, preserving its beauty for generations to come. As we gaze upon this image today, we can appreciate both the artistry behind Mercator's work and Ricciarini's ability to bring it to life through photography. This print serves as a testament to the enduring power of art and history; it allows us to travel back in time while reminding us of how far we have come. It is a treasure worth cherishing for all those who appreciate fine art and seek knowledge about our world's past.
