Painting Description
Vincenzo Maria Coronelli's Terrestrial Globe 44 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, cartographer, and cosmographer, is renowned for his detailed and artistic globes, which were highly sought after by European nobility and scholars. Terrestrial Globe 44 is part of a series of globes created by Coronelli, who was appointed as the official cosmographer of the Republic of Venice.
This particular globe, like others in Coronelli's oeuvre, is characterized by its meticulous attention to detail and artistic embellishments. It features a diameter of 44 inches, making it one of the larger globes produced during this period. The globe is mounted on a wooden stand, often intricately carved, and includes a meridian ring and horizon circle, which are essential for its use in navigation and education.
The surface of Terrestrial Globe 44 is covered with hand-drawn and colored maps, depicting the known world as it was understood in the late 1600s. The globe includes detailed representations of continents, countries, and various geographical features such as mountains, rivers, and seas. Additionally, it is adorned with illustrations of ships, sea monsters, and mythological figures, reflecting the artistic style and cultural beliefs of the era.
Coronelli's globes were not only tools for navigation and education but also works of art that demonstrated the wealth and intellectual curiosity of their owners. Terrestrial Globe 44, in particular, exemplifies the blend of scientific precision and artistic beauty that defines Coronelli's work. Today, these globes are highly valued by collectors and historians, offering a glimpse into the cartographic knowledge and artistic sensibilities of the 17th century.
