Peloponnese

Peloponnese, the near-island, is included in all printed isolaria. It was mapped in port and road indexes, and charted in some of the earliest reliable maps. Above all its southern ports, which were ruled by Venice for centuries and constituted important stoppovers on the journey from the Adriatic to the Aegean sea, were represented in illustrations from the 15th century onwards. The battles of the Ottoman-Venetian wars were depicted in several Venetian engravings, which also show topographic measurements, taken after the fortresses had been conquered.

Gradually, the archaeological explorations realized in sites with remains in plain sight provided the reading public with abundant graphic materials, such as views, plans and architectural features alongside with renderings of the enchanting landscape which surrounds these famous antiquities.

From the late 18th century, scenes from everyday life also enrich travel accounts, while the Greek Was of Independence also provides subjects of illustrations. The new capital of the Greek State was highlighted in general views and details, while local costume also found a place among the wealth of graphic material available on the Peloponnese.
