EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-coloured engraving, titled "Asia, 1592" takes us on a journey back in time to the late sixteenth century. Created by the renowned Belgian artist Abraham Ortelius (1527-98), this print is a testament to his exceptional cartographic skills and artistic vision. The intricate details of this close-up view of Asia are brought to life through delicate hand tinting, showcasing Ortelius' mastery of colour. Navigational equipment adorns the map, reminding us of the importance of exploration during this era. As we gaze upon this historic continent, we are transported to an olden time when maps were not just tools for navigation but also works of art. The meticulous engravings highlight every geographic feature with precision and accuracy. Ortelius' "Asia" is part of his famous work "Theatrum Orbis Terrarum" published in Antwerp in 1592. This monumental atlas revolutionized cartography and became a cornerstone for future mapmakers. In this print, there are no people depicted; instead, it focuses solely on the beauty and complexity of Asia's landscapes. The absence of human figures allows us to appreciate the vastness and diversity that lies within these borders. With its rich history and exquisite craftsmanship, this hand-coloured engraving serves as a reminder of our fascination with exploration and discovery throughout centuries past. It stands as a testament to both Ortelius' genius as an artist and his contribution to our understanding of geography
