Description
This is beautiful large double-map of the Adriatic Sea, the Gulf of Venice and much of Italy. The map covers the eastern coast of Italy and follows the coastline of the Adriatic to the Balkan states south to Corfu. The region was contested between the Ottoman Empire and the Republic of Venice from the 15th through the early 18th centuries with seven major conflicts. Political divisions are shown and each has their respective coat of arms displayed. There is an elaborate title cartouche at lower left that features the plans for 22 different coastal fortifications surrounding a scene of Venice and topped by the Hapsburg coat of arms. At top right is a cartouche with six different distance scales above a winged and crowned lion with the gospel representing the Republic of Venice. The map is based on the cartography of Coronelli and Sanson.
