EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the year 1599, capturing a bustling market scene in Goa, the Portuguese colony on the Malabar coast of India. The engraving from Hugo Lischotanus Navigatio in Orientem provides a glimpse into daily life during this period. The image showcases a vibrant city street adorned with umbrellas and filled with people going about their daily activities. A horseman elegantly rides through the crowded streets, adding an air of grandeur to the scene. Local vendors can be seen selling their wares, while men and women engage in shopping and socializing. The fusion of Indian and Portuguese cultures is evident as Asian influences blend seamlessly with European colonialism. This snapshot offers a window into the diverse tapestry that was present during this era. Engraved by Hugo Lischotanus and published in Frankfurt, Germany, this remarkable piece serves as both historical documentation and artistic expression. It allows us to appreciate how commerce thrived amidst cultural exchange at that time. As we gaze upon this enchanting print from Granger Art on Demand's collection, we are transported back centuries ago to witness Goa's vibrant market atmosphere—a testament to its rich history as an important trading hub along India's western coast.
