EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning World Map, created in 1492 by the Nuremberg cartographer Martin Behaim, is a testament to the fascinating and complex history of cartography during the Age of Discovery. The map is unique in its representation of the world as divided into two distinct halves, with the eastern and western hemispheres separated by the Indian Ocean. Behaim, who is believed to have traveled extensively, incorporated the latest geographical knowledge available at the time, including the recent discovery of the New World by Christopher Columbus. The map's intricate details and vibrant colors bring to life the known world of the late 15th century, with Europe, Africa, and Asia depicted in their entirety, and the Americas, still largely unexplored, represented only by a rough outline. The map also features numerous annotations and illustrations, including depictions of various cities, islands, and mythical places. Despite its age, the Behaim World Map remains an important historical artifact, providing valuable insights into the geographical knowledge and beliefs of the time. Its intricate design and rich details continue to captivate scholars, historians, and cartography enthusiasts alike, making it a must-see for anyone interested in the history of exploration and the development of global awareness. This print, from the Mary Evans collection, offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of cartographic history, allowing us to explore the world as it was understood over 500 years ago. Whether displayed as a conversation piece in a home or office, or used as a teaching tool in an educational setting, this print is sure to inspire wonder and curiosity about the world and its rich history.
