Copperplate engraving, 120x177 mm, hand-painted. Taken from “Theatrum urbium Italicarum” first edition of this collection of plans and views of cities (undoubtedly to be preferred for freshness of printing of the plates to the later one), reprinted later in Vicenza in 1616 by Domenico Amadio with the addition of some plates (67 plates instead of the original 59). Latin text, pertinent, however, to the previous plate on the verso, by an unknown author, although some scholars speculate it is by Bertelli himself. Good copy.
