"Italia cum Stationibus fuis et viis Publicis Delineata a Jacobo Cantelli da Vignola... / Niewe Kaart van Italien, met de Gemene Wegen en Postwegen Getekent door Jacobo Cantelli da Vignola...", Halma, Francois

This superbly decorated map is based on the work of Giacomo Cantelli da Vignola and is filled with details of cities, postal roads, and river systems. Two title cartouches fill the corners of the map with the title in Latin and Dutch, with the figures and symbols representing war and the arts. The central cartouche dedicates the map to Frederick William I of Prussia. Engraved by Gerrit Droogenham.
