Engraved map
Venice: ca. 1670
20" x 21" sheet
Scarce and highly detailed bird’s-eye view of Venice with extensive index of place names. Set in the center of the index are two englarged views of the famed Piazza San Marco (top) and Rialto Bridge (bottom).
The map is based upon the Bernardo Salvioni (1597) plan of Venice. This gorgeous bird’s-eye view of Venice gives a taste of how this city existed during the seventeenth century. Buildings are shown as well as several traveling vessels including gondolas and ships. Other topographical features are also illustrated.
