This poster showcases the first modern atlas and world map, Theatrum Orbis Terrarum, crafted in 1570 by the acclaimed Flemish artist and geographer Abraham Ortelius. Ortelius is credited with the groundbreaking hypothesis that the continents were once a single landmass before drifting to their present locations, a theory supported by the striking geometric congruence between the American and Euro-African coastlines. Suggesting continental drift as the underlying cause, his work is a cornerstone in the field of geography. Original Ortelius maps are highly sought after by collectors, fetching significant sums, and stand as treasures of cartographic history.
Artist: Abraham Ortelius | Created: 1570.
