The world we know today is very different from what people thought in the past. As explorers discovered new areas and lands that appealed to them, there was a constant need to re-map everything. With this the enormous art of making globes blossomed. Achieving precision and intricate detail required careful work, hand gluing copper plates to a plaster-finished papier-mâché core. As new knowledge was gained, old versions became obsolete. Still, their stunning beauty and historical significance retain a timeless appeal.
