EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable map of central and southern America, along with the islands of Cuba, Hispaniola, and Puerto Rico. Created by Lazaro Luis in 1563, this piece of cartography represents the intricate knowledge and artistry prevalent during the 16th century. The map encompasses an array of fascinating details that transport us back in time. From Florida to Jamaica, from the Bahamas to Haiti, every island and coastline is meticulously depicted. The archipelago appears like a vibrant tapestry against the backdrop of a serene sea. A sailing boat gracefully glides through these waters, symbolizing exploration and adventure. It serves as a reminder of how seafaring vessels were essential for discovering new lands during this era. The lush trees scattered across the landscape add depth to this artistic representation of physical geography. They evoke images of tropical forests teeming with life – an invitation to explore further into these uncharted territories. A compass rose elegantly adorns one corner of the map, emphasizing its navigational significance. This tool guided sailors on their journeys across vast oceans while relying on Western script annotations for orientation. Lazaro Luis's masterpiece stands as both an illustration and painting; it seamlessly combines scientific accuracy with artistic flair. With no people present within its frame, it invites viewers to imagine themselves embarking on their own voyages through history. This stunning print captures not only historical significance but also evokes a sense of wonderment at our planet's diverse landscapes waiting to be discovered centuries
