Civitates Orbis Terrarum – The Cities of the World in the 16th Century
A unique glimpse into the past: Civitates Orbis Terrarum is the first major city book in world history. Published between 1572 and 1617, it features over 500 detailed city views from Europe, Asia, and Africa – often depicted from a bird's-eye perspective, lovingly colored, and providing fascinating insights into life during that time. Edited by Georg Braun and engraved by Frans Hogenberg, this work is a captivating testament to the Renaissance – and a treasure for anyone interested in history, cartography, and historical cityscapes.
