Description

Rare, beautifully engraved, Lafreri-school map of the Iberian Peninsula, published by Domenico Zenoi in 1560.

Bifolco & Ronca call this the first Venetian copperplate derivation of Paletino's map of the Iberian Peninsula (1551). But despite a lineage to the Paletino map, Zenoi's is fundamentally a close copy of Luchini's map that was published in Rome a year earlier.

Condition Description

Two sheets joined as one with contemporary "Lafreri-style" margins added on top, right, and left. A few small stains, namely at the bottom right or otherwise confined to the margins. Overall a crisp, dark impression.
