Plan von Venedig
(Venedig)
Es handelt sich hierbei um einen originalen, altkolorierten Kupferstichplan der Stadt Venedig von Giuliano Giampiccoli (1698 - 1759) ca. aus dem Jahr 1780.
English description:This extremely rare copperplate engraving, I am unaware of any copy bearing a German title, features a highly decorative depiction of 18th-century Venice in original colours. The image renders the lagoon city with great detail, showing its extensive network of canals, all major buildings and squares, and the outlying islands. An exceptionally comprehensive key identifying the buildings and squares, along with a depiction of the Lion of Venice, complements the map. While most of the text is in Italian, German annotations regarding its use suggest that this is a version of Giampiccoli’s plan adapted for German travelers, a plan that is itself based on Ludovico Ughi’s well-known map from 1729. This genuine copper engraving by Giuliano Giampiccoli (1698 - 1759) was printed around 1780. It measures 22 x 33 cm (platesize) and is in good condition. There is some light browning due to age. - Reference: "Jürgen Schulz - The printed plans and panoramic views of Venice p. 85 No. 130"
