Public domain art from the Beinecke Rare Book & Manuscript Library, digitally enhanced.
This is a plate from Diogo Ribeiro's most important work, the 1527 'Padrón Real'. There are six original copies attributed to Ribeiro, including at the Weimar Grand Ducal Library (1527 Mundus Novus) and at the Vatican Library, in Vatican City. The layout of this mappa mundi is strongly influenced by the information obtained during the Magellan-Elcano circumnavigation of the globe.
Diogo's map delineates very precisely the coasts of Central and South America. It shows the whole east coast of the Americas but of the west coast only the area from Guatemala to Ecuador. Neither Australia nor Antarctica appear, and the Indian subcontinent appears too small. The map shows for the first time, however, the real extent of the Pacific Ocean. It also shows, for the first time in cartography, the North American coast as a continuous one (probably influenced by Estêvão Gomes's explorations in 1524–1525). It also shows the demarcation of the Treaty of Tordesillas.
Diogo Ribeiro (died 1533) was a Portuguese cartographer and explorer who worked most of his life in Spain, where he was known as Diego Ribero. As well as the official maps of the Padrón Real from 1518 to 1532, he also made navigation instruments, including astrolabes and quadrants.

CLICK FOR TIPS
When buying artworks figure out what you like. If you're just buying something you love, it's not difficult to make a decision!
If you hang an artwork at home and it doesn’t feel right, move it. Try putting it in different places, and see if it strikes an interesting dialogue with other works on your wall. Smaller artworks often work well near light switches, or hung low over a small piece of furniture like a bedside table.
Grouping works together can be really effective. Test out a group of frames by arranging them on the floor or a table top. If you’re feeling pro, use masking tape to mark out your very own tightly packed grouping!
