EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a historical treasure - the Map of the Boulonnais territory, Artois and French Flanders, dating back to 1570. Created by Abraham Ortelius, a renowned Flemish cartographer of the Renaissance era, this engraving offers an accurate depiction of the region's geography during that time. The map encompasses various significant places such as Calais, Arches, Greuelinge, Etaples, and Montreuil within the Comte de Boulogne. It is extracted from Ortelius' famous work "Theatrum Orbis Terrarum" which was considered one of the first modern atlases. Displayed at Museo Navale di Pegli in Genoa, Italy, this piece holds immense historical value. The intricate details and precision with which it was crafted reflect Ortelius' expertise in cartography. This particular print has been skillfully captured by Luisa Ricciarini for all art enthusiasts to admire. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork today, we are transported back in time to explore the landscapes and boundaries that shaped France's northern regions centuries ago. It serves as a testament to humanity's continuous quest for knowledge and understanding of our world. Luisa Ricciarini's photograph not only preserves this invaluable piece but also allows us to appreciate its beauty from afar. Through her lens, we can marvel at every line and contour etched onto paper by Ortelius himself.
