EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning historical map print depicts the Iberian Peninsula as it was known in the 15th century, based on the works of the renowned ancient Greek scholar Claudius Ptolemy. Ptolemy, who lived around AD 100 to AD 170, was an Egyptian astronomer, mathematician, and geographer, whose groundbreaking texts on cartography and geography influenced European mapmaking for centuries to come. The map, titled "Cosmographia," is believed to have been produced around AD 1456, making it an important relic of the early modern period. The Iberian Peninsula, located in southwestern Europe, is depicted with remarkable detail, including the various kingdoms and regions that comprised the area at the time. The map shows the peninsula's diverse topography, from the rugged mountains of the north to the sun-drenched plains of the south. The major cities and towns of the region are also labeled, including Lisbon, Seville, and Cordoba, providing a glimpse into the rich history and cultural heritage of the Iberian world. This map is a testament to the enduring legacy of Claudius Ptolemy and the importance of his work in shaping our understanding of the world. It offers a fascinating window into the past, allowing us to explore the history, geography, and cultural connections of the Iberian Peninsula during a time of great change and discovery.
