Description
This is a digital painting of medieval map of the island of Corsica. The original was painted in the late XVI century with ink and pigments on European laid paper. Piri Reis was an Ottoman admiral, geographer, and cartographer lived between 1465 and 1553. He is primarily known today for his maps and charts collected in his Kitabi-ı Bahriye (Book of Navigation), a book that contains detailed information on navigation, as well as very accurate charts (for their time) describing the important ports and cities of the Mediterranean Sea.
