This fascinating print showcases a T-map from the tenth century, offering a glimpse into the cartography of medieval times. The map depicts three known continents - Asia, Africa, and Europe - on a flat earth projection, providing insight into how explorers viewed the world during this period.
The intricate details and design of the T-map highlight the ingenuity and creativity of early mapmakers who sought to navigate uncharted territories and understand the vast expanse of our planet.
