Description
*** START PRICE IS THE RESERVE ***
[Europe] UGHI, Ludovico (Active c. 1700-1740).
Iconografica rappresentazione della inclita città di Venezia consacrata al reggio serenissimo domino veneto.
Engraved map.
Venice: 1703 (Second State, 1739).
74” x 83” sheet, 82” x 91” framed.
Large engraved wall map joined, with additional panels bearing the running title at head and side panels containing 16 views of prominent buildings (engravings attributed to Francesco Zucchi, after Luca Carlevarij's 'Fabriche e Vedute di Venetia', 1703), coat-of-arms surrounded by putti and military equipment of Francesco Morosini (1619-1694, last of the 'warrior Doges') to lower left, lion of Saint Mark surrounded by marine creatures (after a drawing by Sebastiano Ricci) to upper left, cartouche at bottom right with dedication by Ughi to Doge Alvise III Mocenigo, descriptive text along the lower border.
Apparently the second edition with the imprint of Lodovico Furlanetto. This plan was the first of Venice based on an accurate field survey, with its size allowing for considerable detail, and served as the prototype for all plans of Venice almost to the end of the century.
