"The term "mantle" has inspired philosophers, geographers, and theologians, and shaped artists and mapmakers' visual vocabularies for thousands of years. According to Veronica della Dora, "mantle" is the "metaphor par excellence, for it unfolds between the seen and the unseen as a threshold and as a point of tension."
