EDITORS COMMENTS
This print is a rare example of early modern cartographic art, depicting Tartariae sive Magni Chami Regni typus, or the Type of Tartary, also known as Great Cham, from Abraham Ortelius and Jan Baptist Vrients' seminal atlas, Theatrum Orbis Terrarvm, published in 1603. The map covers the vast expanse of northern Asia, with intricate pictorial relief illustrating the geographical features of the region. Ortelius, a renowned Flemish cartographer from the 17th century, and Vrients, his engraver, collaborated on this masterpiece, which was hand-colored to enhance its visual appeal. The map is a testament to the advances in cartography during the Renaissance, as well as the fascination Europeans held for the mysterious lands of Central Asia. The map includes detailed text, notes, and color illustrations, providing valuable insights into the geographical knowledge of the time. The text on the verso offers additional information about the regions depicted, further enriching the map's historical significance. The Library of Congress in Washington D.C. is fortunate to house this precious piece of heritage art, which not only showcases the meeting of frontiers between European and Asian geographical knowledge but also highlights the beauty and artistry of early modern cartography. This map is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of geography, cartography, or the cultural exchange between Europe and Asia during the 17th century.
