Decorative map of Corsica, orientated with north to the left, with strapwork cartouches for the title, scale and dedication, and with sea monsters and a galleon in the sea.
As Corsica was still subject to Genova this map appeared in Magini's 'Nova descrittione d'Italia', the first printed atlas of Italy, published after Magini's death by his son Fabio.
