Andreæ Schotti. Itinerarium Italiæ

Schottus, Franciscus, Schottus, Andreas [Bearb.], Janssonius, Jodocus [Bearb.] · 1655 · 19 pictures

Andreæ Schotti's Itinerarium Italiæ is a 1655 travel guide to Italy, compiled from Franciscus and Andreas Schottus and edited by Jodocus Janssonius for travellers and readers of Latin. Its pictures are copperplate town plans of Naples, Pisa, Ticinum and Parma, drawn in plan view with walls, streets, rivers and fortifications set in fine engraved line. A designer might take their dense hatched street grids and star-shaped bastion outlines as a model for historical city mapping.
