Description
Rare Giovanni Orlandi edition of Claudio Duchetti's rare view of Jersualem.
Duchetti's fine modern view of Jerusalem shows the City from the West. Laor noted that the view is likely based upon Stefano Du Perac's view of 1570, also published in Rome.
The map is richly annotated, identifying a number of place names and historical points of interest, including Jewish, Christian and Islamic religious landmarks.
Both the Duchetti and Orlandi editions are very rare. We note no other examples at auction or in dealer catalogues.
Condition Description
Split along an old fold, with an old repair on the verso. Remargined in the style of Lafreri School maps.
Reference
Tooley #339; Laor #1012 (Duchetti edition) and #1014.
