EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of history - the Map of Spain and Portugal from Geographia, created by Claudius Ptolemy in the 2nd century. The vellum manuscript, now housed in the Biblioteca Marciana in Venice, Italy, offers a glimpse into ancient cartography. The map itself is a testament to Ptolemy's meticulousness and knowledge of geography during his time. It depicts the Iberian Peninsula with astonishing accuracy for its era. The intricate details on this vellum document reveal rivers, mountains, cities, and coastlines that were significant landmarks centuries ago. As we admire this photograph, we are transported back to medieval times when maps like these were invaluable tools for explorers and navigators seeking new territories. This particular rendition captures the essence of Ptolemy's work while showcasing its artistic beauty. The use of vellum as a medium adds an extra layer of historical significance to this piece. Vellum was often used for important manuscripts due to its durability and ability to preserve delicate illustrations over time. Through this print from Fine Art Finder by www. bridgemanimages. com, we have access to an extraordinary artifact that not only provides insights into ancient geographical knowledge but also serves as a reminder of humanity's endless curiosity about our world.
