Very fine and detailed map of the Gulf of Venice focusing on the Balkan nations. The map is fully engraved to show mountains, forests, cities, fortifications and even tiny villages. The map is based on the work of Delisle, Coronelli, Rossi and Nolin who are attributed in the cartouche. Decorated with a compass rose and a fine (uncolored) cartouche.
