EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the stunning views of Mainz (Moguntia), Wurzburg, Germany, and Sion (Sedunum) in Switzerland. Created through the intricate art of etching by Franz Hogenberg, a renowned artist from the 16th century, this piece is a true masterpiece. The print is part of the private collection owned by Luisa Ricciarini. The image captures three distinct cities with their unique charm and architectural marvels. Mainz and Wurzburg in Germany are depicted with their impressive castles towering over lush fields and picturesque churches. The attention to detail highlights the rich geography of these regions, emphasizing their importance in agriculture and fortification. In contrast, Sion in Switzerland exudes its own beauty with its quaint dwellings nestled among breathtaking mountain ranges. This engraving provides an exterior view that transports viewers to another time when strongholds were essential for protection. Taken from "Civitates Orbis Terrarum" an atlas book created by Georg Braun and Franz Hogenberg between 1572-1617, this print offers a glimpse into historical cartography. It serves as both a geographical map and a visual representation of these magnificent cities during that era. Luisa Ricciarini's ownership adds value to this remarkable artwork as it continues to inspire awe for those who appreciate history, architecture, and the beauty found within our world's diverse landscapes.
