EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite illustration of the differing measurements of the league in Germany, Brabant, France, and Italy. Taken from the renowned Atlas de Richelieu, this coloured engraving by Arnold Florent van Langren offers a fascinating glimpse into the scale model of distances during the tumultuous era of the Thirty Years War. Langren, belonging to a distinguished lineage of cartographers and globe makers, served as Cosmographe or Spherographe to King Philip IV of Spain. His expertise is evident in this meticulously crafted artwork that highlights various compasses and maps alongside detailed measurements. The image not only captures historical significance but also provides valuable insights into how distances were perceived at that time. It reminds us that a league equated to approximately 5.5 kilometers or 3.5 miles during this period. Preserved within the archives of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Paris, France, this precious piece exemplifies Langren's mastery as an artist and geographer. The vibrant colors breathe life into his creation while showcasing his attention to detail. As we delve into this mesmerizing print from Fine Art Finder's collection courtesy of Bridgeman Images, we are transported back in time to witness an era where cartography played a crucial role in understanding geographical boundaries and measuring vast distances across Europe.
