EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the ancient world as depicted in a series of beautifully colored maps. Created by Heinrich Kiepert, a renowned cartographer from the 19th century, these maps were part of his Atlas Antiquus collection designed for educational purposes. The intricate engravings depict the extent of various realms and civilizations known to exist during ancient times. From Africa to Asia, each region is meticulously detailed, offering a glimpse into the diverse cultures and landscapes that shaped our history. In this print, we see mythological figures and characters intertwined with real geographical features. The presence of Assyria highlights its significance in ancient mythology and religion. Paganism and polytheism are also represented through symbols associated with different belief systems. The vibrant colors used in this engraving bring life to the maps, enhancing their visual appeal while providing valuable information about historical boundaries and territories. Europe is prominently featured alongside Egypt, India, China, and Central Africa – regions that played crucial roles in shaping civilization as we know it today. As we explore this artwork from Bridgeman Images' private collection, we are reminded of how far humanity has come since these ancient times. It serves as a testament to our curiosity about the world around us and our continuous quest for knowledge throughout history.
