Painting Description
The "Terrestrial Globe 4" by Vincenzo Maria Coronelli is a notable example of the cartographic and artistic achievements of the 17th century. Vincenzo Maria Coronelli, an Italian Franciscan friar, cosmographer, cartographer, and encyclopedist, is renowned for his precision in mapmaking and the grandeur of his globes. Born on August 16, 1650, in Venice, Italy, Coronelli founded the world's first geographical society, the Accademia Cosmografica degli Argonauti, and was known for his expertise in globe-making.
The "Terrestrial Globe 4" is one of Coronelli's masterpieces, reflecting his meticulous attention to detail and the geographical knowledge of the time. These globes were not only scientific instruments but also works of art, often commissioned by the European elite and rulers for their libraries and collections. They typically featured elaborate cartouches, illustrations, and detailed geographical information, combining aesthetics with the latest discoveries and cartographic data.
Coronelli's terrestrial globes were constructed by applying hand-colored printed gores on a wooden and plaster sphere, a technique that allowed for both durability and detail. The "Terrestrial Globe 4," like his other works, would have showcased the political boundaries, trade routes, and geographical features known to Europeans during the late 17th century. It would also have included elements of Coronelli's distinctive style, such as ornate decorations and possibly even mythological and allegorical figures, which were common in the iconography of the period.
The exact specifications of the "Terrestrial Globe 4," such as its size, the materials used, and its current location or ownership, would require further details to provide a complete overview. However, Coronelli's globes are generally considered to be among the most important and impressive cartographic achievements of the Baroque era, and they continue to be highly valued by historians, collectors, and institutions for their historical significance and craftsmanship.
