EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of history, the "Map of Lisbon" from Civitates Orbis Terrarum by Georg Braun and Frans Hogenberg. Created in the late 16th century, this coloured engraving offers a mesmerizing birds-eye view of the vibrant Portuguese city. The image beautifully captures Lisbon's bustling harbour, with ships gracefully navigating the waters of the majestic River Tagus. The intricate details on this map provide a glimpse into the city's rich trading heritage and its importance as a prominent port during that era. One cannot help but be drawn to the meticulously depicted compass at the center of the map, symbolizing Lisbon's significant role as a navigational hub for explorers and traders alike. It serves as a testament to Portugal's maritime prowess during this period. The artist Joris Hoefnagel skillfully recreates this historical masterpiece through his own lens, paying homage to Braun and Hogenberg’s original work. This print is part of The Stapleton Collection, housed within a private collection today. Transporting us back in time, this enchanting engraving invites us to explore Lisbon through an entirely different perspective—a window into its past glory. As we admire every stroke and detail captured in this 16th-century artwork, we are reminded not only of Lisbon's architectural beauty but also its enduring legacy as one of Europe's most influential cities.
