Etching realized by Giacomo Cantelli da Vignola, and published by Giacomo dé Rossi in 1683. It is part of the Series "Mercurio Geografico or Geographical Guide to All Parts of the World\.", collection of maps published in Rome by de Rossi between 1660 and 1730. Suggestive map of India, Ceylon, the Maldives and neighbouring regions with the title at the bottom right within a large and imaginative cartouche with natives and animals. Intact sheet with margins as original. Horizontal binding fold in the center. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no official proof of authenticity, however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity issues arising from misattribution
