This densely engraved map of northern Italy extends to include parts of France (extending to Grenoble) and Switzerland. The map extends as far east as Belluno, Padua, Ferrara, Bologna and Florence, but just shy of Venice. The map is highly detailed with hundreds of tiny towns, political boundaries, rivers, lakes, and pictorial representations of the mountains. Printed on two sheets, joined as issued.
