EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the year 1520, when Giovanni Xenodocus da Corfu created an exquisite nautical atlas. The image showcases the Central Mediterranean region, beautifully rendered with ink on vellum. Measuring 32x22.3 cm, this historical masterpiece is now housed in the Museo Correr in Venice, Italy. As we gaze upon this ancient map, our eyes are drawn to the intricate details that bring life to its surface. From Italy's boot-shaped peninsula and the enchanting islands of Corsica, Sardinia, and Sicily to North Africa's coastline and Croatia's Adriatic Sea shores - every contour has been meticulously depicted by da Corfu. The artistry of cartography shines through as we marvel at how effortlessly da Corfu captured the essence of these lands and seas. This portolan chart not only serves as a navigational tool but also stands as a testament to human curiosity and exploration during that era. Transported by this visual journey through time, one can almost imagine sailors relying on similar maps for their daring voyages across treacherous waters. It reminds us of how far we have come in terms of mapping technology while appreciating the ingenuity required by those who came before us. Thanks to Fine Art Finder and www. bridgemanimages. com for preserving this remarkable piece of history for all generations to admire and learn from. Let it serve as a reminder that even centuries-old works continue to inspire awe and fascination
