AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This is an original copper engraving from a rare Italian edition of 1667.

This is the extremely rare pocket edition of ABRAHAM ORTELIUS's maps, prepared and engraved by SCIPION BANCA in VENICE in 1667, published in his fantastic work bearing the name: "THEATRO DI ABRAHAM ORTELIUS........ in Venezia, M.D.C.L.X.VII. (1667)."

Beautiful and rare map published in Italy, with wide margins, excellent original coloring, well marked and very well detailed in every point.

Conditions: the condition is good, as shown in the photos and considering its almost 400 years of age; however there is a woodworm hole in the upper-left area as the images demonstrate, and it can be easily removed.

The overall dimensions of the map are: 14 cm by 10 cm.
