EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Kiel, Germany (engraving, 1588)", takes us back in time to the picturesque city of Kiel during the late 16th century. Created by Franz Hogenberg and published in volume IV of "Civitates Orbis Terrarum" in 1588, this print offers a fascinating glimpse into the historical landscape. The image showcases the charming cityscape of Kiel with its prominent church dominating the skyline. The exterior view captures the architectural beauty of buildings that line the riverbank. As we explore further, our eyes are drawn to a striking coat of arms proudly displayed on one of these structures. The attention to detail is remarkable as every element within this engraving tells a story. From the blazon symbolizing heritage and nobility to the flowing river that has been an integral part of Kiel's history, each component adds depth and character to this visual narrative. Originally part of an atlas book created by Georg Braun and Frans Hogenberg between 1572 and 1617, this particular print now resides in a private collection owned by Luisa Ricciarini. Its inclusion here allows us to appreciate not only its artistic value but also its significance as a historical document. As we gaze upon this enchanting scene from centuries past, we are reminded once again how art can transport us through time and space, connecting us with distant places and cultures while igniting our curiosity about their stories.
