Description
A rival Island-book to the Isole Famose by Camocio was published by Simone Pinargenti, Venice 1573, under the title “Isole che son da Venetia nella Dalmatia et per tutto l’arcipelago fino a Costantinopoli”.
The Pinargenti’s are variously arranged in each one of them, without consecutive engraved numbering, as the early editions of Camocio’s work. A large number of the plates are signed by Pinargenti himself, one dated 1570, and onother one 1571. Like the larger maps of The IATO these smaller ones were first issued for a loose sheet circulation, and then assembled in booklet form for interested customer.
Very rare.
