Painting Description
Vincenzo Maria Coronelli's "Terrestrial Globe 30" is a remarkable artifact from the late 17th century, showcasing the intricate craftsmanship and advanced geographical knowledge of its time. Coronelli, an Italian Franciscan friar, cosmographer, and cartographer, is renowned for his detailed and aesthetically striking globes. Born in Venice in 1650, Coronelli's work reflects the rich maritime heritage and the burgeoning interest in exploration and cartography that characterized the period.
The "Terrestrial Globe 30" is part of a pair of globes, the other being a celestial globe, both of which were created for the Duke of Parma, Ranuccio II Farnese. These globes, each with a diameter of approximately 110 centimeters (43 inches), are celebrated for their precision and artistic beauty. The terrestrial globe is meticulously hand-painted, featuring detailed representations of continents, countries, and various geographical features known at the time. It also includes illustrations of ships, sea monsters, and other decorative elements that were common in cartographic works of the era.
Coronelli's globes were not only scientific instruments but also works of art, reflecting the Baroque style's grandeur and attention to detail. The "Terrestrial Globe 30" is mounted on an elaborate wooden stand, often adorned with intricate carvings and gilded elements, further emphasizing its status as a luxury item for the elite.
The globe's creation involved extensive research and collaboration with other scholars and explorers, incorporating the latest discoveries and navigational data. Coronelli's work was highly regarded, and his globes were sought after by royalty and scholars across Europe. Today, the "Terrestrial Globe 30" is considered a valuable historical artifact, offering insights into the geographical knowledge and artistic sensibilities of the late 17th century. It stands as a testament to Coronelli's skill and the era's fascination with the world and the cosmos.
