EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the year 1520, where we find ourselves exploring the Western hemisphere of Johannes Schöner's globe. The image, created between 1830 and 1839, beautifully captures the essence of this historical cartographic masterpiece. The retro-styled imagery adds a touch of nostalgia as we observe the unhygienic and stained parchment surface. The rustic frame surrounding the picture gives it an ornate feel, reminiscent of a bygone era. Its textured effect further enhances its vintage charm. As we delve into this ancient world map, our eyes are drawn to Asia, Europe, Africa, Australia, and the Americas—all meticulously depicted with intricate details. The vast Atlantic Ocean stretches across the scene like a sea of possibilities waiting to be explored. This artwork serves as a reminder of humanity's thirst for knowledge and exploration throughout history. It symbolizes our fascination with understanding our place in this vast sphere called Earth. Despite its aged appearance—dirty, torn, and even burnt in some areas—the map still holds immense value as a document that played a crucial role in disseminating geographical information during its time. Nastasic's skillful capture brings forth not only an appreciation for art but also sparks curiosity about our collective past. This piece invites us to reflect on how far we have come while acknowledging those who paved the way for future generations' discoveries.
