EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a detailed description of the magnificent Palace of Nonesuch, along with fascinating insights into the appearance and customs of English people during the 16th century. The image is taken from Volume V of the renowned atlas and town book Civitates Orbis Terrarum by Georg Braun & Franz Hogenberg, published in Cologne. The inscription on this page emphasizes that nowhere else can one find anything quite like the Royal Palace in England's Kingdom, aptly named Nonsuch. The intricate artwork surrounding the text features an elaborate decorated initial "N" adding to its visual appeal. Beyond depicting architectural beauty, this print also delves into social history and trade practices prevalent at that time. It sheds light on apprenticeship systems and their significance in shaping skilled workers through training and work experience. The Latin script accompanying these illustrations provides valuable historical context for those interested in understanding Elizabethan society. With its rich tapestry of information encompassing various aspects such as custom, nonpareil (unrivaled), Tudor influences, and more, this print offers a glimpse into life during the 16th century. Its inclusion in private collections ensures its preservation for future generations to appreciate and learn from.
