Three very fine maps of Greek Islands, two of Crete, and one of Corfu. The first map is a superb large-scale representation of Crete by the Venetian master Camocio, the depiction features the island's most famous mythical aspect, the Labrynth of the Minotaur. The second map of Crete, featuring an elegant strapwork cartouche, was produced by Ferrando Bertelli, the prolific Venetian cartographer.
