EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a historical gem, the "Map of Wilnis" taken from the renowned Civitates Orbis Terrarum by Georg Braun and Frans Hogenberg. Created between 1572-1617, this coloured engraving is a true testament to the artistic brilliance of Joris Hoefnagel. The map transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into the city's rich heritage and cultural significance. It depicts Wilnis as it stood centuries ago, with its charming streets and majestic buildings beautifully captured in intricate detail. The river flowing through the heart of the city adds an element of tranquility to this bustling urban landscape. Notably, one cannot overlook the presence of farm animals dotting the outskirts of Wilnis - a reminder that agriculture played a vital role in shaping this community's identity. Additionally, an elegant crest proudly adorns this map, symbolizing both unity and nobility. Beyond its local context lies an intriguing connection to distant lands; references to Lithuania and Vilnius hint at global trade routes that once connected cities across continents. This serves as a powerful reminder that even within seemingly small towns like Wilnis, there exists an interconnectedness with far-flung corners of our world. Preserved within private collections today, this remarkable piece offers us not only visual delight but also invaluable insights into our shared history. As we admire Hoefnagel's masterful engraving technique and marvel at his attention to detail, let us appreciate how art can transcend time
