EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of history - the WORLD MAP from c1490. Created during the late Renaissance period, this map incorporates the groundbreaking discoveries made by Bartholomeu Diaz in 1488. It is important to note that while Diaz's expeditions are depicted on this map, it does not include the voyages of Christopher Columbus. The map offers a unique perspective on how people perceived and understood the world at that time. With its flat depiction of Earth's geography, it reflects the prevailing belief in a two-dimensional world. Europe dominates much of the center, surrounded by vast oceans and distant lands waiting to be explored. Africa takes prominence on this map due to Diaz's significant exploration along its coastlines. His achievements opened up new possibilities for trade routes and expanded European knowledge about Africa's diverse cultures and resources. This image serves as a testament to both scientific progress and human curiosity during an era when cartography was rapidly evolving. It reminds us of our ancestors' relentless pursuit of knowledge about our planet and their determination to push boundaries. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing artwork, we are transported back in time, marveling at how far we have come since then. This World Map from c1490 invites us to reflect on our shared global heritage while inspiring us to continue exploring uncharted territories with an open mind and adventurous spirit.
