The "Map of Mexico and Central America" by Egn Danti is a historical cartographic masterpiece, produced by the renowned Italian priest, mathematician, cartographer, and cosmographer, Egnazio Danti in the 16th century. Danti, noted for his significant contributions in mapping a considerable part of the world during the Renaissance-era, crafted this work as part of a grand project commissioned by Cosimo I de' Medici, of Tuscany, who sought to decorate the walls of the Palazzo Vecchio's Guardaroba (wardrobe) rooms with maps depicting the entirety of the known world.

This particular map depicts the geographical territories of Mexico and Central America, including regions that were, at the time, major seats of the Aztec and Mayan civilizations, and rich, vital territories for Spanish exploration and colonization in the New World. Entirely painted on panels and placed on the walls, the map portrays not only the geographical features of these territories but also provides insightful glimpses into the cultural and social aspects of the regions depicted, offering a window into the European perception of the Americas in the 16th century.

The meticulous detail, careful craftsmanship, and historical context of the "Map of Mexico and Central America" by Egnazio Danti underscore its importance as a key document in the history of cartography. It remains preserved in the geographical collections of the Palazzo Vecchio in Florence, Italy, offering an invaluable resource for historians, scholars, and visitors seeking to understand the geographical imagination and knowledge of the Renaissance period.
