EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the enchanting city of Edinburgh as depicted in Sebastian Munster's Cosmographia from 1550. The woodcut illustration, created by an anonymous German artist of the 16th century, showcases the intricate details of this medieval Scottish cityscape. Edinburgh, known for its rich history and stunning architecture, is beautifully captured in this print. The viewer is transported to a bygone era where they can marvel at the grandeur of ancient buildings and immerse themselves in the charm of old-world streets. The image evokes a sense of nostalgia as we witness Edinburgh's early development through Munster's eyes. From towering structures to winding alleys, every element tells a story about Scotland's capital during that period. One can almost imagine walking along these cobblestone paths and exploring the hidden corners that have witnessed centuries of human existence. Sebastian Munster himself was a renowned German cartographer who dedicated his life to mapping various regions across Europe. His attention to detail shines through in this illustration, capturing not only the physicality but also the essence and spirit of Edinburgh. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Munster's Cosmographia, we are reminded once again why art has such power - it allows us to travel through time and experience distant worlds without leaving our present reality.
