EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-colored engraving, titled "Novi Belgii Novaeque Angliae Nec Non Partis Virginiae, 1651-55" captures the essence of colonial America in the 17th century. Created by Claes Jansz Visscher, a renowned Dutch cartographer, this artwork showcases his meticulous attention to detail and artistic skill. The print depicts a vast expanse of land stretching from Canada down to Central America, bordered by the Atlantic Ocean. It offers a unique glimpse into the early settlement of North America and highlights significant regions such as New Amsterdam (now New York City) and Chesapeake Bay. What truly sets this piece apart is its inclusion of Native American tribes that inhabited these lands long before European colonization. The presence of indigenous people adds depth and complexity to our understanding of this era's history. Visscher's use of vibrant colors brings life to the scene, enhancing our visual experience. From lush forests to rolling hillsides, every element is meticulously rendered with precision and care. As we admire this remarkable work at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, it serves as a reminder not only of our shared heritage but also the rich cultural tapestry woven throughout North America's past. This print invites us to reflect on the complex interactions between different peoples during this transformative period in history. In essence, "Novi Belgii Novaeque Angliae Nec Non Partis Virginiae" encapsulates both beauty and historical significance within its frames—a testament to Visscher's talent as an artist and his contribution to cartography.
