[Blog Post] An Allegory of Salvation (Koen Gheuens & Cary Rapaport)

[Mark Knowles]

Regarding the T-O map, I am inclined to stick with what Rene wrote in another thread and see it as a symbol of the world - it might just be that. Maybe its orientation matters, but I don't know enough about T-O maps (and the way the VM uses them) to say if we can confidently use its orientation in any way. Isn't the big part on top supposed to be Asia, i.e. Orient, which would be okay with my interpretation?

I thought Rene was arguing that the top right rosette represented the world not the top right T/O  map. I think the top right T/O maps represents the world, but I don't think that was what Rene has argued, although I may have misremembered.
