Old Map of the World Blue European Wall Art

Old Map of the World Blue Italian woven tapestry features a wonderful cartographic rendition of the globe in the 11th century. Full of astonishing details in the world land masses as well as the art in the work surrounding the scientific work, this world map tapestry is simply beautiful. World maps were both an art and a science as cartographers aimed to portray the world in accurate light, based on nautical measurements made by explorers by sea which took months of data to work with to compile the outline of the world. The color palette of blues and browns is simply beautiful in this work, as displayed in the blue mille fleur background.
