EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a historical gem from the 17th century - Santo Domingo, as depicted in the Atlas by W. J. Blaeu in 1630. The renowned Dutch cartographer, Joan Blaeu (1596-1673), meticulously crafted this intricate engraving that now resides in a private collection. Transporting us back to an era of exploration and discovery, this image offers a glimpse into the rich geography and cultural tapestry of Santo Domingo. The attention to detail is astounding, capturing every nuance of this Caribbean dominium with precision. However, it is impossible to overlook the somber undertones present within this artwork. Amidst its beauty lies a reminder of the dark history associated with enslavement during that time period. This print serves as both an artistic marvel and a poignant reflection on human bondage. Giancarlo Costa's expert photography brings out every intricate line and shading found within Blaeu's original work, ensuring that even centuries later, we can appreciate its significance. As we delve into this piece, we are transported not only through space but also through time - experiencing firsthand the legacy left behind by colonial powers such as France. Intriguingly layered with historical context and geographical accuracy, this print invites us to contemplate our past while appreciating artistry at its finest.
