EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the intricate and detailed Map of the East Indies by Abraham Ortelius, dating back to around 1570. The coloured engraving showcases Ortelius's masterful cartography skills, with a size of 35x50 cm and housed at the National Maritime Museum in London.
Ortelius's 'Theatrum Orbis Terrarum' was first published in 1570, making this map a true historical treasure from the 16th century. The ocean on the map is adorned with whimsical mermaids, fearsome monsters, and even a ship in distress, adding an element of adventure to this ancient depiction of Asia.
The vibrant colours used in this engraving bring life to the various regions depicted on the map, highlighting South East Asia in particular. The attention to detail and artistic flair displayed by Ortelius truly make this piece a work of art beyond just cartography.
As you gaze upon this image, you can't help but be transported back in time to an era when exploration and discovery were at their peak. This Map of the East Indies is not just a geographical representation but also a window into history that continues to captivate viewers centuries later.
