Uncommon Italian produced map of Ireland
SOCIETA CALCOGRAFICA.
Rojaume d'Irlande comprendent les Provinces de Munster de Connaugut, Ulster, et de Leinster Par Robert de Vaugondy.
Venice: la Societa' Calcografica, 1803. Original colour. 490 x 550mm.
Some minor creasing.
A very scarce map of Ireland, in the style of Antonio Zatta with a scenic title cartouche, but folio-sized. The title cartouche is printed from a separate plate ( an extra paper indent is present )
It comes from a never-finished atlas by the 'Società Calcografia', a partnership of the two main Venetian publishers of the period, Zatta and Giuseppe Antonio Remondini, which probably ended with Zatta's death in 1804.
NOT IN BONAR LAW, although possibly a variant of Santini's plate (117).
