About the Item

This Safi is an original etching realized by George Braun (1541 – 1622) The state of preservation of the artwork is good. Interesting B/W etching on coeval paper, this artwork represents skilfully a detailed view of the city of Safi through confident strokes. At the top the title "TZAFFIN" is printed. The etching belongs to the collection "Civitates Orbis Terrarurm" realized by Georg Braun and Frans Hogenberg. The Civitates Orbis Terrarum (Atlas of the Cities of the World) was the second oldest printed atlas in the history of world cartography and the first atlas totally dedicated to topographical views. The first volume of this collection was published in Cologne in 1572; the following in 1575, 1581, 1588, and 1598. The sixth and final volume appeared in 1617, shortly before the extensive devastation wreaked by the Thirty Years’ War. This artwork is shipped from Italy. Under existing legislation, any artwork in Italy created over 70 years ago by an artist who has died requires a licence for export regardless of the work’s market price. The shipping may require additional handling days to require the licence according to the final destination of the artwork.
