Description
An unusual pictorial 'bird's eye' view of Italy, supposedly looking down from 20,000 feet in the Alps, also marking Malta and the North African coast at the top of the map. Above the map are nine city arms of the major towns; bottom left is a comparative table of mountain heights, also marking the volcanos of Etna and Vesuvius.
