Polychrome manuscript, 520 x 380 mm. Lirio is a small hamlet of Montalto. The territory is depicted in great detail and embellished with numerous architectural decorative elements; it features a large ribbon at the top bearing the title, as well as a *putto* (cherub) pointing south—which is oriented toward the top—with an arrow. Mounted on contemporary canvas, the piece shows traces of soiling, various imperfections, small tears, and areas of loss that have been restored. Despite these flaws, it remains a fascinating document.
