About the Item
This Map of Methoni is an etching realized by George Braun (1541 – 1622)
The state of preservation of the artwork is good but aged and the trace of foxing that doesn't affect the image.
Interesting B/W etching on coeval paper,this artwork represents skilfully a detailed view of the city of Methoni through confident strokes.The title is on the plate at the top "Medon, siue. modona, quondam methone, ciuitas est littoralis pelops poneli, in Morea"
The etching belongs to the collection "Civitates Orbis Terrarurm" realized by Georg Braun and Frans Hogenberg.
The Civitates Orbis Terrarum (Atlas of the Cities of the World) was the second oldest printed atlas in the history of world cartography and the first atlas totally dedicated to topographical views. The first volume of this collection was published in Cologne in 1572; the following in 1575, 1581, 1588, and 1598. The sixth and final volume appeared in 1617, shortly before the extensive devastation wreaked by the Thirty Years’ War.
