EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intricate map of The Hispanias, created by the renowned Claudis Ptolomaeus in 1456. Ptolemy, as he is commonly known, was a Greek mathematician, astronomer, and geographer whose work laid the foundation for modern cartography.
The manuscript displayed in this image showcases Ptolemy's meticulous attention to detail and his advanced understanding of geography during the XV century. The map depicts the regions of Castile and Leon in Spain with remarkable accuracy for its time.
Located in the Library of the University of Salamanca, this rare manuscript is a testament to both Ptolemy's genius and the enduring legacy of educational institutions like universities. The presence of lions on either side of the map adds an element of regality and symbolism to this historical artifact.
As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded not only of Ptolemy's contributions to our understanding of the world but also of the importance of preserving knowledge through manuscripts like these. It serves as a reminder that education has always been at the heart of human progress and that libraries continue to be invaluable repositories for our collective wisdom.
