I was saying that in this room, for which no one has been able to identify an author,there are representations that can be found only in here. There are no representations similar to this one in any other places, even the more famous and re-known ones. Not even in the Sistine Chapel. You can visit any famous museum in the world and you won’t find what you can see in this room. I’m talking about a representation of the entire planet. It is declared anachronistic because it has the Antarctica without ice, and because it has a representation of the Americas, therefore the first objection is that, depicting the Americas, it cannot have been made prior to 1492, despite the fact that at the bottom, engraved, there is a writing stating: “Terra Australis anno 1459 sed nondum plene cognita” which means “Southern land in 1459 yet not fully known”, which is a rather enigmatic phrase, don’t you think? And despite there is a total affinity between this representation and the one made by Leonardo in one of his Codex, albeit partial, and limited to Europe. Some says that it was simply an emulation, but there is a peculiarity: In both maps the Italian region of Puglia is missing. And it is unlikely to think that Leonardo would copy such a rough mistake without correcting it, if it was a mistake.
A representation of the entire planet in 1459?
