Córdoba 1901: A Cartographic Journey Through Andalusia’s Heartland in Spain

About the Item

The map provided is of the province of Córdoba, part of the autonomous community of Andalusia in southern Spain, as of the year 1901. It details various elements: The map displays the varied terrain of Córdoba, including the Sierra Morena to the north and the beginning of the Subbaetic Range to the south. It shows blue lines indicating rivers, most likely including the Guadalquivir River, which runs through the province. Red lines represent the transportation network of roads and railways, detailing how the province is interconnected. Symbols on the map mark the locations of cities, towns, and villages, with the capital city of Córdoba highlighted. Dotted lines suggest the borders of the province within the region of Andalusia. A legend (Signos Convencionales) details the symbols used for provincial capitals, roads, railways, and other features. A scale in kilometers is included to assist in measuring distances between points on the map. The coat of arms of Córdoba is prominently featured, displaying a castle and a lion, which are common heraldic symbols with historical significance to the region. About the province of Córdoba: Córdoba is historically significant, known for its cultural heritage, particularly during the time when it was the capital of the Islamic Emirate and then Caliphate of Córdoba. This period left a lasting architectural mark, notably the Mezquita-Catedral (Mosque-Cathedral), which is a UNESCO World Heritage site. The province's geography is diverse, with fertile valleys in the Guadalquivir basin and extensive olive groves, making it one of the most important areas for olive oil production in Spain. The local cuisine reflects the province's history, with dishes that have Arab and Roman influences. Córdoba is also known for its festivals, including the Patios Festival, where private courtyards are lavishly decorated with flowers, and the Feria de Córdoba, a vibrant celebration filled with music and dancing.

  • Mexican A Journey Through Design Book by Newell Turner
    Located in New York, NY
    Mexican A Journey Through Design By: Newell Turner Foreword by Susana OrdovasAn American expat searches vibrant cities and quiet pueblos for the essence of Mexican style Revealing the richly visual and cultural details that are the essence of Mexican style, design editor and photographer Newell Turner has done for Mexican design what legendary culinary pioneer Diana Kennedy did for Mexican food. Elegantly organized around nine decisive decorative periods that have shaped México’s unique design journey to the present day, Turner establishes a visual dialogue with the reader that beautifully captures the depth and subtleties of the country’s aesthetic legacy. Ushered behind the walls, gates, and doors of private México, we are introduced to an intriguing world of interior design and architecture—including the highly developed civilizations pre-dating the arrival of Columbus; the Spanish colonial arts; the dynamic response to global movements such as Art Deco and Surrealism; and a rich survey of modernist and contemporary work. Woven intricately into this history is Turner’s own story of discovering the distinctive soul of México, where —in the spirit of memoirs in which a traveler discovers another country —he finds himself along the way. In this vivid volume of color, texture and contrasts, Turner examines the extraordinary range of Mexican design with the insight of a true devotee. The breathtaking photography shows how every room, courtyard, loggia—and even a chair, or an arrangement of flowers—are part of a rich design heritage. Turner spent his magazine career chronicling American style, and now his unerring eye...
