EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable detail from the atlas created by Willem Janszoon Blaeu in 1630. Titled "Measurement of the Earth" this exquisite piece offers a glimpse into the intricate world of cartography during the 17th century. The image depicts an allegorical scene, with a geographer diligently measuring and mapping the earth's surface. The use of various instruments, such as a compass and planisphere, highlights the precision and scientific approach employed by Blaeu in his work. Notably, amidst this scholarly setting, an unexpected element adds whimsy to the composition - a mischievous monkey curiously observes the geographer's activities. This playful addition serves as a reminder that even in serious pursuits like geography, there is room for lightheartedness and curiosity. Giancarlo Costa expertly captures this extraordinary artwork through his lens, allowing us to appreciate every intricate detail. The rich colors and fine engravings bring forth both beauty and historical significance. As we gaze upon this photo print, we are transported back in time to witness Blaeu's dedication to accurately representing our vast world on paper. It is truly awe-inspiring to consider how far our understanding of geography has come since then. This stunning piece would make an excellent addition to any art collection or serve as an educational tool for those fascinated by history or cartography.
