Copper engraving, original period coloring, richly colored period cartouche—albeit partially—at the top center. 488x578. At the bottom are partially period-colored maps of Messina on the left and Catania on the right. Seutter, after an apprenticeship with Homann in Nuremberg, moved to Augsburg around 1720 and opened his own business, surpassing his master in terms of aesthetic appeal: his maps always feature brilliant colors and elaborate cartouches. This copy is in excellent condition.
