This is a very decorative map covering the region from Naples in the upper left to the Golfo di Policastro in the south. A dandy surveyor stands beside the scale of miles and merfolk flank the grape-laden title cartouche. Galley ships, a compass rose and delicate calligraphy further decorate the sheet. Spanish text on verso
