Approximately 25 satirical cartoon maps are on display at the Lassani Mansion in Kozani, while over 100 maps are shown on a video wall, relating the troubled history of the 19th century. «The blending of cartoons and cartography has been used for social and political allegory, as metaphorical imagery and also as a commentary that may happen to resonate more widely,» says Evangelos Livieratos, professor of geodesy and cartography at the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, and the curator of this exhibition. Thessaloniki is included on this map, probably because of its role in the religious struggles going on at the time. A copy of one of his maps from the Vatican’s collection – the first piece in the exhibit – depicts Africa as a monk and Europe as a loose woman. It included daring religious and geographical commentary, as well as moral comparisons between nations. The heretical monk Opicinus de Canistris of Pavia – also known as the «Mad Map-man» – was the first to sketch an anthropomorphic map of Europe in the early 1300s. Predating political cartoons, these singular maps are works of art designed by clearly talented artists and show seven centuries of satirical cartographical history. Anthropomorphic maps of Europe that relate its history through allegorical imagery are on display at the new exhibition, «Satirical Cartoon Maps of World History,» housed in Kozani’s Lassani Mansion.
