Description

Very rare map of the Veneto region of northern Italy, first published by Giovan Battista Mazza in 1590 after the model map of Cristoforo Sabbadino.

The map depicts the undulating rivers and lagoons of the Veneto watershed. It places particular emphasis on Padua and Treviso. Mazza has extended the focus of the Sabbadino to include Ferrara and part of Friuli.

This is Bifolco & Ronca's second state (of 3), with Mazza's name and the 1590 date erased and replaced with that of Bertelli.

Francesco Bertelli has also added the coats of arms of Doge Francesco Contarini, who was elected on September 8, 1623, and he was in office until December 6, 1624. This dates the second state of the map to circa 1623-24.

Condition Description
Two sheets joined as one. Right and left margins replaced from the neatline. Central part of upper margin replaced.

(Lombardy) Alta Lombardia e stati ad essa circonuicini... [Upper Lombardy and adjacent states]

This is an uncommon late 17th-century map depicting part of the Lombardy region of Italy. The map is based on the work of Giacomo Cantelli da Vignola, an Italian cartographer who introduced a distinctive style in cartography that was followed and developed by notable cartographers such as Vincenzo Coronelli. The map was published in Rome as part of Giacomo de Rossi's world atlas "Mercurio Geografico" and is dated 1680. The map was engraved by Giorgio Widman, a skilled Italian engraver who contributed to several important atlases of the time.
