Vincenzo Coronelli is renowned for his atlas and globe production and for the miniature books of details of Mediterranean, Adriatic and Aegean ports and harbours. With the plate number 106 engraved in the lower right corner, this appeared in "Il Mediterraneo Descritto" and "Isole Citta E Fortezze".
