Painting Description
Terrestrial globe 3 by Vincenzo Maria Coronelli is a notable example of the cartographic and artistic achievements of the late 17th century. Vincenzo Maria Coronelli (1650-1718) was an Italian Franciscan friar, cosmographer, and cartographer renowned for his detailed and accurate globes and maps. His works are celebrated for their combination of scientific precision and artistic beauty, reflecting the advanced geographical knowledge of his time.
Coronelli's terrestrial globes were highly sought after by European nobility and intellectuals, and they were often commissioned by prominent figures. These globes were not only tools for navigation and education but also symbols of prestige and intellectual curiosity. Terrestrial globe 3 is part of a series of globes created by Coronelli, which includes both terrestrial and celestial representations.
The globe itself is meticulously crafted, featuring detailed cartographic information that includes the latest discoveries and geographical knowledge of the era. It is adorned with intricate illustrations, including depictions of sea monsters, ships, and various mythological figures, which were common in maps of the period. These artistic elements not only enhance the visual appeal of the globe but also provide insight into the cultural and imaginative context of the 17th century.
Coronelli's globes are also notable for their large size and the use of high-quality materials. They were typically constructed with a wooden framework, covered with papier-mâché, and then overlaid with printed paper gores that were hand-colored. This combination of craftsmanship and artistry has ensured that many of Coronelli's globes have survived the centuries and are now housed in museums and private collections around the world.
Terrestrial globe 3, like Coronelli's other works, represents a significant achievement in the history of cartography. It exemplifies the blend of scientific inquiry and artistic expression that characterized the Age of Exploration and continues to be a valuable artifact for historians, geographers, and art enthusiasts alike.
