About the Item

Globo terrestre realizzato alla fine del XIX secolo da Ernst Schotte di Berlino. Oltre alla mappa territoriale sono raffigurate le correnti oceaniche. Base in legno tornito ed ebanizzato, sfera in cartapesta. Buono stato, segni d’uso, ossidazione, molto buona la leggibilità. Misure cm 29 x 65 – inches 9.4 x 25.5 Schotte Ernst co. fu una importante ditta costruttrice di globi e planetari, fondata a Berlino nel 1855. A partire dal 1870 Schotte E. co. realizzò molti globi in oltre 25 lingue, ma anche molti globi celesti, lunari e planetari, esportati in tutta Europa, con un design molto artistico e un aspetto riccamente decorativo. L'azienda continuò la produzione fino all'inizio del XX secolo. Fino agli inizi del Novecento le sfere per i globi venivano prodotte come alle origini: due semisfere di cartapesta pressate e modellate sopra o dentro uno stampo emisferico, essiccate e rafforzate all’interno con un’asse di legno, quindi incollate e ricoperte di uno strato sottile di gesso, su questo supporto venivano incollati i fusi del globo di zone comprese tra due meridiani, generalmente dodici in carta precedentemente stampata da incisione su lastra di rame e colorati, ciascuno dei quali coprente 30 gradi di longitudine. Da sempre l’uomo ha desiderato conoscere il mondo in cui vive e ha utilizzato tutti i mezzi a disposizione per misurare lo spazio che lo circonda per ampliare sempre più le proprie conoscenze. Le condizioni che permisero all’uomo di elaborare modelli del mondo e dello spazio si realizzarono probabilmente soltanto dopo che il pensiero ebbe raggiunto uno sviluppo tale da comprendere che si poteva rappresentare attraverso un modello processi naturali. Già nell’antica Grecia i naturalisti erano arrivati a comprendere la sfericità della Terra e la sua posizione sospesa nello spazio. Il primo globo di cui si ha notizia è quello attribuito da Strabone, storico e geografo, al greco Cratete di Mallo (c.a. 150 a. C.). I primi globi agli inizi del XVI sec. furono costruiti sotto la spinta delle grandi esplorazioni geografiche ed iniziarono da subito ad essere impiegati per scopi didattici presso corti principesche, monasteri e collegi; il globo comincia in seguito a conquistare gli ambienti universitari e le scuole superiori ed inferiori. Sarà con l’Ottocento del grande commercio, della circolazione e dell’introduzione dell’obbligo scolastico che il desiderio di conoscere paesi lontani aumenterà rendendo inadeguato il vecchio metodo di costruzione dei globi. Fusi stampati da lastre incise non bastano più e l’unica vera risorsa diventa la litografia attraverso la quale è possibile stampare ed aggiornare tempestivamente carte che col crescere delle scoperte geografiche effettuate nei vari paesi si fanno sempre più differenti.
