[After Euphrosynus ULPIUS (d.1552)] Paese di Roma. [Rome?:], 1556
Engraved map of Rome and the Roman campagna (East at the top), on a full median sheet, 320 x 444mm. Arms of pope Paul IV (Giovanni Pietro Carafa), scalebar and dividers, title set in plain small cartouche, ships and sea monsters decorate the sea. (Trimmed to image, window-mounted.)
RARE. The first representation of the Roman campagna inspired by Euphrosynus Ulpius's (Eufrosino della Volpaia) six-sheet map of the whole of Lazio, now in the Biblioteca Apostolica Vaticana. Ulpius was a noted painter, globemaker and cartographer active in Rome. The papal arms and date were added after the sea had already been engraved and Grotta Ferrata has been re-engraved, as in the copies at Dillingen and in the British Library map room. This map served as basis for later editions by Bertelli, Forlani, and others. Tooley 474, recording three copies only; reproduced by Almagià MIC, tav.XXI; watermark not in Woodward.
