In this first volume dedicated to Civitates Orbis Terrarum are reported the 80 plates describing Italy, from north to south, and following the navigation through the Mediterranean Sea's costs. We invite you to a trip where you can explore and recognize familiar cities and towns, but are you ready to discover their appearance five centuries ago? |
