EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite steel engraving, dated 1857, presents an old map of Romania and Bulgaria, a captivating snapshot of cartographic history. The intricate detailing and meticulous craftsmanship are evident in the winding rivers, the mountain ranges, and the borders of various principalities and territories. The map is adorned with a hand-colored borderline, adding an artistic touch to the already impressive visual. At the time of its publication, the political landscape of Eastern Europe was undergoing significant change. The Ottoman Empire was gradually losing control over its European territories, and the map reflects the complex political situation. The Danube River, a major trade route and natural boundary, divides the map into two distinct regions: Romania to the north and Bulgaria to the south. The map also highlights various cities and towns, including the ancient Roman city of Ulpia Traiana Sucidava, modern-day Sucidava, Romania, and the Bulgarian capital, Sofia. The map serves as a testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of the region, making it a valuable addition to any collection of historical maps or European cartography. This map is a reminder of the past, a window into a time when borders were redrawn, empires rose and fell, and the world continued to evolve. It is a beautiful piece of art and history, inviting us to explore the stories it holds and the mysteries it reveals.
