EDITORS COMMENTS
This image is taken from the 1576 map "Civitates Orbis Terrarum" by Georg Braun and Franz Hogenberg, housed in the Salamanca University Library. The map depicts the Basque Country in Spain, with a focus on the vibrant coastal city of San Sebastian (Donostia) and the imposing Mount Igeldo. The map's intricate detail showcases the natural beauty and economic importance of this region during the 16th century. The Bay of Biscay, located in the northwestern part of the map, is marked with an arrow, highlighting the strategic position of San Sebastian as a key fishing port. The Cantabrian Sea, rich in marine life, is teeming with boats and fishermen, as indicated by the numerous vessels and figures depicted in the waters. Mount Igeldo, a prominent landmark, looms in the background, its peak reaching towards the heavens. The mountain's steep cliffs and lush greenery offer a striking contrast to the bustling activity below. The city of San Sebastian, nestled at the foot of the mountain, is a colorful mosaic of red-tiled roofs and winding streets. The map also reveals the historical significance of the region, with the names of various towns and provinces, including Guipuzkoa, clearly marked. The engraving technique used in the creation of this map, combined with its rich detail and accurate representation of the geography, makes it an invaluable historical document. This image offers a glimpse into daily life in San Sebastian during the 16th century, providing a window into the past and the rich cultural heritage of the Basque Country.
