Description

This detailed map of Sulmona, from Ferrando Bertelli's Theatrum Urbium Italicarum, was first published in Venice in 1599.

The engraving showcases the city's layout during the late Renaissance period, depicting buildings, streets, and significant landmarks with intricate detail. The map features a fortified wall surrounding the city, emphasizing its strategic importance. The title cartouche in the upper left corner includes the Latin phrase, "Ovidii Patria," indicating Sulmona as the birthplace of the Roman poet Ovid.

The map provides a historical snapshot of the urban design and architectural elements of Sulmona, reflecting the artistic and cartographic skills of the late 16th century.
