EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Map of northern Germany with the city of Kuden, 1570" takes us on a journey through time and geography. Created by the renowned Flemish cartographer Abraham Ortelius in 1570, this map offers a glimpse into the intricate details of northern Germany during that era. The focal point of this print is undoubtedly the city of Kuden, situated within Thietmarsiae and Holsaticae regions. With its strategic location along the coastlines, Kuden emerges as a bustling hub for trade and commerce. The precision and artistry with which Ortelius depicts every street and building showcases his mastery in cartography. As we explore beyond Kuden's borders, we are transported to an enchanting world filled with lush landscapes, winding rivers, and charming towns. This map serves not only as a geographical reference but also as a historical document capturing the essence of German life in the late 16th century. Preserved at Museo Navale di Pegli in Genoa, Italy, this engraving is part of Luisa Ricciarini's collection. Its inclusion in "Theatrum Orbis Terrarum" further solidifies its significance as an invaluable resource for scholars and enthusiasts alike. Through this remarkable piece by Ortelius brought to life by Luisa Ricciarini's expertise in fine art preservation, we can appreciate both the beauty of cartographic artistry and gain insight into our rich historical past.
