EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite engraving by G. Zuliani, taken from Tome I of the "Newest Atlas" published in Venice in 1775 by Antonio Zatta. The artwork, now part of a private collection in Florence, depicts "The Kingdoms of Spain and Portugal divided into their provinces". With its intricate details and meticulous craftsmanship, this engraving exemplifies the Renaissance-Baroque styles and periods that flourished during the eighteenth century in Europe. It serves as a testament to the remarkable talent and skill possessed by artists of that era. As we delve into this historical masterpiece, we are transported back to a time when cartography played an essential role in communication and understanding territories. This geographical map not only provides us with accurate depictions of Spain and Portugal's provinces but also offers an allegorical representation of these kingdoms. The abstract concepts conveyed through this artwork allow us to explore the rich history embedded within these regions. From ancient civilizations to modern nations, it encapsulates centuries worth of stories about peoples, territories, and their interactions. Through this lens into the past, we gain insight into how geography has shaped these lands over time. We can appreciate how maps served as vital instruments for exploration and navigation during different epochs. Dating back to 1775 when it was created by Zuliani G. , this engraving stands as both a valuable historical document and a work of art. Its significance lies not only in its aesthetic appeal but also in its ability to convey complex information about Spain's and Portugal's landscapes. Thanks to Alinari's photograph taken in 2009, we have been granted access to admire this exceptional piece remotely while appreciating its contribution towards our understanding of European history.
