EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the stunning views of Kozhikode or Calicut in India, Ormuz or Ormus in Iran, Cannanore or Kannur in India, and St. George of the mine or Elmina in Ghana. The etching was created by Franz Hogenberg, a renowned artist from the 16th century. The image takes us on a visual journey through different continents and cultures. We are transported to Kozhikode, where we can admire its vibrant streets and bustling markets filled with colorful spices and textiles. Moving on to Ormuz, we are captivated by the ancient architecture that stands as a testament to Iran's rich history. Next, our eyes wander to Cannanore or Kannur in India, where we witness the beauty of this coastal city with its pristine beaches and lush greenery. Finally, we arrive at St. George of the mine or Elmina in Ghana—a place steeped in history as one of Africa's oldest European settlements. Through this exquisite engraving extracted from Civitates Orbis Terrarum (Atlas of World Cities), we gain a deeper appreciation for the diverse landscapes and architectural wonders found across these regions. This artwork is not only a feast for the eyes but also an invitation to explore and learn about different cultures around the world. Luisa Ricciarini has masterfully captured this historical piece through her lens, allowing us to appreciate these views from centuries ago with renewed awe and admiration.
