EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing detail of "A Map of the Sea (Carta marina)" by Olaus Magnus, an esteemed Swedish geographer and historian from the 16th century. Published in 1572 by Antoine Lafréry, this engraving is considered one of the earliest accurate cartographic depictions of the Scandinavian peninsula. The intricate artwork reveals a world teeming with mythical creatures and fantastic beasts, capturing our imagination and transporting us to a time when legends roamed the seas. Amongst these enchanting beings, we spot a majestic humpback whale gracefully gliding through the waves, reminding us of the vastness and beauty of marine life. The map itself is meticulously crafted with vibrant colors that bring it to life. It portrays various islands, including those found in Scandinavia such as Sweden and Finland. The compass card serves as both a navigational tool for seafarers and an artistic element that adds depth to this remarkable piece. As we explore this historical artifact, we are reminded not only of its significance in cartography but also its portrayal of Europe's maritime history. From Norway to Estonia, Lithuania to Latvia, this map captures the interconnectedness between landmasses and their relationship with surrounding seas. Through Bridgeman Images' lens, we are granted access to this extraordinary work that combines artistry with scientific precision—a testament to human curiosity about our world's wonders centuries ago.
