Description
This is a magnificent view of the famous, historic Spanish city of Granada from the east. The three parts of Granada proper are detailed and named; Granada, Albaicin, and Antequerela. The foreground is filled with contemporary citizens of the town, from peasant to grandee, all within a lovely pastoral setting. The Moors ruled this city for about 800 years, until 1492, when it was recaptured by Spain. They left behind the beautiful Alhambra, or Red Fortress, shown to the right of center. The grand cartouche floats in the sky above and incorporates a key of 19 important buildings. It is flanked by inhabitants of the city, garlands, a falcon and reclining figures. Latin text on verso with page number 4. From the Civitatis Orbis Terrarum.
