Incisione originale su rame (cm. 28x20 più ampi margini). Ottimo esemplare. Rara.

Incisione in rame, 190x258. Rara pianta prospettica della citt? sconosciuta a tutte le bibliografie consultate. Si differenzia infatti da quella di Forlani, contenuta nel celebre "Il Primo Libro delle Citta et Fortezze Principali del Mondo", edito nel 1567, risultando molto simile a quella poi pubblicata, ritoccando la lastra, nell'opera di Giulio Ballino "De' disegni delle pi? illustri citt? et fortezze del mondo", edito da Bolognino Zaltieri nel 1569, anche se notevoli rimangono le piccole differenze. Per motivi stilistici possiamo ipotizzare che sia opera dello Zenoi, che nel 1567 pubblicÚ una raccolta di vedute urbane che sembra essere la naturale prosecuzione del lavoro del Forlani; esiste anche una stampa molto simile, l'unica che riporti come la nostra, una legenda con 111 rimandi (105+A-F). L'unico volume ad oggi noto di tale raccolta, non reca nessun titolo, ma nel frontespizio inciso, dedicato a Ieronimo Lippomani, riporta la data 4 aprile 1567. Bell'esemplare marginoso con lievi pieghe di carta e piccolo restauro nel margine all'angolo sup. destro.Sconosciuta a Moretto e Cassini, Valerio pp. 39/47.

ATTRACTIVE COPY OF RARE AND IMPORTANT ITALIAN ATLAS, WITH MANY CITY PLANS BY PAOLO FORLANI AND DOMENICO ZENOI. Little is known about Giulio Ballino, Italian humanist and scholar who compiled the work and wrote the text. He was an associate of Paolo Manuzio (1512-1574), who mentions him in correspondence in the 1560s as working for him in various capacities, including corrector and editor (cf. Sbriziolo). Ballino s literary activity was primarily as a popularizer, translating many Greek philosophical and theological works into Italian. Printer and publisher Bolognino Zaltieri used the plates of several different engravers throughout the book, many being plans by Paolo Forlani (active 1560-1577) and Domenico Zenoi (active 1560-1580) that first appeared just two years earlier in Forlani s Il primo libro delle città, et fortezze principali del mondo (1567). The chart of Europe is by Girolamo Olgiato (active 1567-1575); Mexico City (here called "Timistitano", i.e. Tenochtitlan) is the only plan in the atlas of a site in the western hemisphere. The map of Central Europe and a marine chart of Europe by Olgiato are followed by views or battle plans of Venice, Fano, Mirandola, Florence, Siena, ancient Rome, modern Rome, Borgo di Roma, Castel Sant'Angelo, Ostia, Nettuno, Civitella, Vicovaro, Naples, Messina, Genoa, Parma, Piacenza, Milan, Crescentino, Paris, Perpignan (with an additional plan from 1642), Metz, Thionville, Cales, Guines, Antwerp, Gravelines, Augsburg, Frankfurt, Geneva, Gotha, Wittenberg, Vienna, Eger, Gyor, Comar, Gyula, Tokaji, Sziget, Zsaka, Constantinople, the Grand Turk and his army, Jerusalem, Tiberias, Malta (fortification), Malta (siege), Tripoli, Zerbe, Peñon de Velez de la Gomera, and Mexico City.
