Map. Engraving with original hand coloring Sheet measures 26 3/4" x 19 3/4" Large map of Italy extending from the northern edge of the Kindgom of Naples to the Brenner Pass in the Alps, with the island of Corsica.

Together, they published numerous maps and atlases, often enlisting prominent cartographers such as Kitchin, Faden, Jefferys and others to update and modify their plates.
