EDITORS COMMENTS
This early view of the world, titled 'Early view of the world (Earth conceived as having roots reaching down into the Infinite; or as standing on it supported by columns)', is a captivating historical depiction of the Earth as imagined during an era when the flat map theory was widely accepted. The image, held in the vast collection of Mary Evans Picture Library from Mary Evans Prints Online, transports us back in time to an age when the mysteries of the Earth and its place in the universe were still being explored and understood. The Earth is depicted as a spherical object, standing proudly on the waters of the cosmic ocean, with roots reaching down into the infinite depths below, or supported by columns that connect it to the heavens above. This representation reflects the ancient belief that the Earth was the center of the universe, with the celestial bodies orbiting around it. The intricate details of this map reveal a wealth of knowledge and imagination, with continents and oceans meticulously drawn, and the vast expanse of the cosmos depicted with a sense of wonder and awe. The map also includes various annotations and labels, indicating the locations of famous landmarks, cities, and geographical features, providing a fascinating glimpse into the historical context of the time. This early view of the world is a testament to the human curiosity and the desire to understand the world around us, and serves as a reminder of the rich history of cartography and geography. It is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of the Earth and the evolution of our understanding of the universe.
