Description
A miniature town plan of Constantinople, engraved by Martin Rota (c.1520-83) of Sebenico in Croatia in 1572.
This is one of six plates signed by Rota in 'Raccolta di le piu illustri et famose Città di tutto il Mondo', a series of 322 plans of which 112 are signed by Francesco Valegio and the rest anonymous.
This plate is more commonly seen in the later 1713 'Universus terrarum orbis' by Raphael Savonarola (also known as Alphonso Lasor a Varea).
