Abstract

The atlas includes 191 prints on 164 'paper units'. The absolute scientific highlight of the present atlas are the 15 historical maps, which are unrecorded zo far. A first group is formed by four maps to illustrate an edition of Ptolemy's Geography in the Italian language. A second set consists of eleven historical maps, forming a fragmentary series to illustrate an Italian edition of the 17 books of the Geography by the Greek Strabo (c. 63 BC - 19 AD).
