Description
A very scarce separate-issue map of Italy, decorated with a long prospect of Rome and medallion prospects of Venice, Genova, Naples and Florence, eight costumes and a sea battle between a galleon and galley in the Tyrrenian Sea.
Originally published in 1606, there is a second state of 1620, this third state and a fourth state issued by Justus Danckerts in 1661.
Condition:
Narrow left margin, small repaired tear, binding folds reinforced on verso.References:
See BORRI 89 for the first issue; he gives the map 95/100 for rarity and states it was never reissued, so he was unaware of this state. Schilder lists only 10 known examples.Related products
