A boldly engraved and very decorative large bird's-eye plan of the City of Lisbon with detailed and annotated panorama below. With title and key in both Latin and German text, 26 major buildings and locations are identified. A large central panel of text describes the city and is flanked at each side by a merman and a mermaid. The sea areas and the quaysides support a variety of merchant shipping and activity, reflecting the city's overseas trading tradition. Bright original wash colour enhances this dramatic image.
