DESCRIPTION:In late July 1585\, the Milanese noble Urbano Monte (1544-1613)
  decided to make an ambitious world map. The first Japanese embassy to Eur
 ope had just visited his city. Monte witnessed the spectacle surrounding t
 he four young Japanese Christians and their Portuguese Jesuit confessor\, 
 returning to Lisbon after visiting Rome in preparation for their voyage ho
 me. The Japanese traveled with a gift of Abraham Ortelius’s Theatrum orb
 is terrarum (1572)\, presumably to show the Japanese what Europe looked li
 ke in this famous Renaissance atlas. Monte was eager to create a map of Ja
 pan to satisfy European curiosity about this part of Asia. How could he br
 idge the vast distance separating Italy and Japan? His answer was to creat
 e a paper planisphere composed of sixty maps.\n\nThis exhibition reconstru
 cts the world of a virtually unknown Renaissance mapmaker.  Monte was insp
 ired by the great geographers and cartographers of the day such as Mercato
 r and Ortelius without choosing to imitate how they made their famous maps
 . He was curious about long-distance travel and eagerly read travel narrat
 ives\, yet never got on a ship to go far from home. An avid consumer of gl
 obal knowledge\, Monte wanted to share what he learned. Take a close look 
 at Urbano Monte’s mappamundi\, and the books\, artifacts\, and experienc
 es that inspired his intellectual voyage.  See how this armchair traveler 
 envisioned his world.\n\nThis exhibition is ongoing and will be available 
 until September 27th\, 2024. To view the exhibit\, visit the David Rumsey 
 Map Center during its public drop-in hours.

DESCRIPTION:In late July 1585\, the Milanese noble Urbano Monte (1544-1613)
  decided to make an ambitious world map. The first Japanese embassy to Eur
 ope had just visited his city. Monte witnessed the spectacle surrounding t
 he four young Japanese Christians and their Portuguese Jesuit confessor\, 
 returning to Lisbon after visiting Rome in preparation for their voyage ho
 me. The Japanese traveled with a gift of Abraham Ortelius’s Theatrum orb
 is terrarum (1572)\, presumably to show the Japanese what Europe looked li
 ke in this famous Renaissance atlas. Monte was eager to create a map of Ja
 pan to satisfy European curiosity about this part of Asia. How could he br
 idge the vast distance separating Italy and Japan? His answer was to creat
 e a paper planisphere composed of sixty maps.\n\nThis exhibition reconstru
 cts the world of a virtually unknown Renaissance mapmaker.  Monte was insp
 ired by the great geographers and cartographers of the day such as Mercato
 r and Ortelius without choosing to imitate how they made their famous maps
 . He was curious about long-distance travel and eagerly read travel narrat
 ives\, yet never got on a ship to go far from home. An avid consumer of gl
 obal knowledge\, Monte wanted to share what he learned. Take a close look 
 at Urbano Monte’s mappamundi\, and the books\, artifacts\, and experienc
 es that inspired his intellectual voyage.  See how this armchair traveler 
 envisioned his world.\n\nThis exhibition is ongoing and will be available 
 until September 27th\, 2024. To view the exhibit\, visit the David Rumsey 
 Map Center during its public drop-in hours.
