About the Item

Globo terrestre tedesco Columbus Erdglobus edito dal cartografo tedesco Paul Oestergaard negli anni cinquanta. Sfera in papier maché e base in legno e metallo completa del cerchio del meridiano. Altezza cm 46 – inches 18.2, diametro sfera cm 30 – inches 11.7. Fondata nel 1909 a Berlino da Paul Oestergaard, nipote di Peter J. Oestergaard che produceva globi alla fine dell'800, la Columbus è la più antica casa costruttrice di globi, che lavora ancora oggi al mondo. Durante più di un secolo la Columbus ha innovato l'industria della manifattura di globi e l'esperienza accumulata in 4 generazioni ha permesso alla Columbus di raggiungere lo status di principale produttore di globi del mondo. Peter J. Oestergaard iniziò la sua produzione alla fine dell'800. Dopo aver prodotto per alcuni anni modelli terrestri per il Berlin Newspaper Allgemeine Zeitung, divenne ben presto noto per i suoi globi dai dettagli sbalorditivi. Decise quindi di aprire un suo negozio di globi; a Peter Oesteergard successe suo figlio Peter Oestergaard Junior, che rinominò la ditta Drei Kegel Verlag; la ditta cessò l'attività durante la seconda guerra mondiale a causa della prematura morte di Peter Oesterggard Junior. Il nipote di Peter Oesterggard, Paul Oestergaard, aprirà invece la famosa Columbus Verlag, che esiste ancora oggi. Il primo globo di cui si ha notizia è quello attribuito da Strabone, storico e geografo, al greco Cratete di Mallo (c.a. 150 a.C.). I primi globi agli inizi del XVI sec. furono costruiti sotto la spinta delle grandi esplorazioni geografiche ed iniziarono da subito ad essere impiegati per scopi didattici presso corti principesche, monasteri e collegi; il globo comincia in seguito a conquistare gli ambienti universitari e le scuole superiori ed inferiori. Sarà con l’Ottocento del grande commercio, della circolazione e dell’introduzione dell’obbligo scolastico che il desiderio di conoscere paesi lontani aumenterà rendendo inadeguato il vecchio metodo di costruzione dei globi. Fusi stampati da lastre incise non bastano più e l’unica vera risorsa diventa la litografia attraverso la quale è possibile stampare ed aggiornare tempestivamente carte che col crescere delle scoperte geografiche effettuate nei vari paesi diventano obsolete sempre più rapidamente.
