From Al-Idrisi's world map of 1154 to Orteliuss' intricate creations from the 16th century, each map tells a unique story about the world as it was known at that time. Al-Idrisi's world map, crafted in 1154, offers a glimpse into medieval Islamic geography, showcasing an impressive understanding of global trade routes and geographical features. Meanwhile, the British Empire world map from the 19th century illustrates the vast extent of Britain's dominion across continents and oceans. The Catalan Atlas transports us to the 14th century with its exquisite craftsmanship and detailed depictions of various regions. It serves as a testament to Catalonia's rich maritime tradition and exploration during this period. Orteliuss' maps take center stage throughout this collection, providing invaluable insights into specific regions such as Ottoman Empire, Italy, Poland, Greece, Germany, Netherlands - all meticulously documented in his renowned Theatrum Orbis Terrarum. These masterpieces not only showcase Orteliuss' cartographic expertise but also shed light on political boundaries and cultural nuances prevalent during his era. Moving closer to home is the Map of City Dublin from 1797 which showcases Ireland's capital city at that time - offering glimpses into its urban layout and architectural landmarks that have shaped Dublin's identity over centuries. Lastly Zaragoza’s (19th c. ) Map takes us to Spain where we can explore Madrid through intricate details capturing its streetscape during that period - allowing us to immerse ourselves in Spanish history while navigating through its vibrant capital city. These remarkable cartographic works serve as windows into our past – they are not just maps; they are gateways connecting us with bygone eras.
