Gorgeous Globe Gores:
Part Two!

Two stunning sets of early modern engravings that build 3D globes are being prepared for our exhibit from a very special private collection! Second up, Giulio and Livio Sanuto!

Unique! These ca. 1570 Italian globe gores of the earth do not survive in ANY other impressions! Come see them in all their glory at the Newberry starting March 21. At 7 1/3 feet around, we can only show you half!
