Newes Itinerarium Italiæ is a 1627 German travel guide to Italy by Joseph Furttenbach, edited by Jonas Saur, written for travellers planning routes through Italian cities and courts. Its plates are architectural plans, a fortress bird's-eye view and a receding perspective of a colonnaded hall, drawn with fine engraved hatching and measured scale bars. A designer could take from them the clean plan-section conventions of early modern architectural drawing, with stippled walls, grid floors and labelled rooms.
