16th century map of Piedmont

RUSCELLI, Girolamo.

Tavola Nuova di Piemonte.
Venice, Vincenzo Valgrisi, 1562, Latin edition. 195 x 260mm.

Engraved by Sanuto for Ruscelli's 'La Geographi di Claudio Tolomeo'. A feature of this first state is that the platemark runs off the top of the sheet: two maps were printed from the same plate then the resulting sheet cut in half.
