A large and decorative map of the ancient world by the renowned Venetian mapmaker, Vincenzo Coronelli. Europe, southern Asia and Africa (north of the tropic of Capricorn) are set within an attractive surround with the zodiac and notations relating to the ancient geographers and their theories. The map was published in Coronelli's "Atlante Veneto", which was intended as a continuation of the Blaeu "Atlas Maior". This vast work comprised some thirteen volumes and a wealth of information including lists of ancient and modern geographers, along with astronomical, geographical, historical and ecclesiastical detail. The maps from the "Atlante Veneto" were engraved in characteristic bold style, as here, using modern outlines to depict the world as known to the ancients.
