EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of history - a Map of Europe in the 16th century. Published in 1923 as part of the renowned book "Britain and Her Neighbours, 1485 - 1688" this archival gem takes us back to an era when cartography was still in its infancy. The intricate details on this map offer a fascinating glimpse into the geographical landscape of Europe during that time. It allows us to explore the various countries and their borders, revealing how they have evolved over centuries. From England's position as a dominant force to the vast territories controlled by Spain, France, and other European powers, every inch of this map tells a story. As we study this historical illustration, we are transported back to an age where exploration and conquest shaped nations' destinies. The careful craftsmanship evident in each stroke reminds us of the immense effort put into creating such maps before modern technology made it easier. Hilary Morgan's expertly captured photograph preserves not only the beauty but also the significance of this antique map. It serves as a reminder that even today, amidst advanced satellite imagery and digital mapping tools, there is something truly enchanting about holding tangible pieces from our past – artifacts that connect us with those who came before us and help us appreciate how far we've come.
