EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from the Nouvel Atlas, dating back to 1643, offers a mesmerizing glimpse into the city of Potosi in Bolivia. The focal point of this image is undoubtedly the famous hill that has earned its reputation for being rich in mineral deposits, particularly silver and tin. Known as Cerro Rico or "Rich Mountain" it stands tall and proud, casting its shadow over the quaint village below. The intricate details captured by the Spanish School artist transport us back in time to an era when mining was at its peak in Potosi. The bustling activity around the hill showcases just how significant these mineral deposits were for both local residents and international trade. As we explore this engraving further, our eyes are drawn to the winding streets and charming architecture of Potosi's cityscape. It is evident that this once-thriving mining town had flourished under the wealth brought forth by Cerro Rico. Today, this print serves as a historical document reminding us of Potosi's past glory while also highlighting the environmental impact caused by centuries of intense mining activities on Cerro Rico. Nevertheless, it remains a symbol of resilience and endurance for both locals and visitors alike who continue to be captivated by its beauty and historical significance.
