EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to 1696 and discover the ancient city of Kyoto, Japan, as depicted on this exquisite early Edo period map. This stunning print showcases the topography of Kyoto during a pivotal moment in Japanese history, just nine years after the country's capital was moved from Osaka to Edo (modern-day Tokyo). The intricate illustration is a testament to the cartographic skills of Japanese mapmakers during this era.
The map is filled with beautiful illustrations of temples, shrines, and other notable landmarks that dot the landscape. The grid-like layout provides a sense of order and precision, while the inclusion of latitude and longitude lines adds an air of scientific accuracy. The use of vibrant colors and delicate brushstrokes brings the city to life, making it easy to imagine strolling through its streets and alleys.
This rare piece of historical cartography not only offers a fascinating glimpse into Kyoto's past but also serves as a reminder of Japan's rich cultural heritage. It's a must-have for anyone interested in geography, history, or simply admiring beautiful works of art.
