    If you're looking for the intersection between traditional art and cartography you'll undoubtedly find it in Lingon's maps. All throughout his maps these last months, this watercolors painter has shown his mastery of this medium. One of his latest maps, Renaissance City, features subtle colors and tones that are simple, elegant, clear and harmonious. This watercolor piece has a solid, realistic layout. Surely this city map a shining jewel in Lingon's maps collection."
