Description

This scholarly work examines how early modern European artists visualised continents through human figures-predominantly female, occasionally male-to communicate their understanding of newly discovered peoples. Rather than presenting straightforward stereotypes, the study reveals the complexity beneath these artistic representations, offering insight into the cultural assumptions and visual strategies that shaped European perceptions during the age of exploration. Part of the Intersections series from Brill, this volume provides essential context for understanding how geography, identity, and artistic expression intertwined in Renaissance and early modern thought, making it invaluable for scholars of art history, cultural studies, and the history of cartography.

Key Features

Explores early modern European artistic representations of continents through personified human forms and bodies.

Examines how stereotypical visualisations of continents reveal complex cultural assumptions about newly encountered peoples.

Part of Brill's Intersections series, volume 73, offering rigorous scholarly analysis of historical imagery.

Investigates the intersection of geography, art, gender, and European colonial perception during the early modern period.
