Description
Progettata dal Marzolla in 12 fogli ed annunciata nel 1857, la carta delle "Circoscrizione Ecclesiastica del Regno delle Due Sicilie" l'opera venne pubblicata solo postuma, a causa della morte dell'autore, nel maggio del 1858. Tra il 1859 ed il 1860 una decina di fogli vennero alla luce per cura dell'architetto Luigi Manzella, che seguì il Marzolla alla direzione dello Stabilimento Geografico.
La fine dell'impero Borbonico, nel maggio del 1860, e lo smantellamento dello Stabilimento Geografico (1880 circa), impedì successive ristampe di queste carte, che sono pertanto rarissime.
Litografia, in eccellente stato di conservazione.

Benedetto MARZOLLA (Brindisi, 1801 - Napoli, 1858)
|
Designer surveyor and lithographer, and cartographer, geographer and member of the Commission of Statistics, Ministry of Interior. Character of great importance in the Neapolitan and Italian maps of the nineteenth century, Marzolla won awards and certificates in public life for the cartographic production of high quality. His reputation has slowly dissolved after death, it should be observed that only the lack of a strong political involvement in the Risorgimento and the sense of literary value in his work not made him famous contemporaries such as Francesco Costantino Marmocchi (1805-1858) and Attilio Zuccagni Orlandini (1783-1872), with which it can certainly deal with. Cultural projects and educational publishing Marzolla were and remain extraordinary modernity, he invented, it is appropriate to say, a new way of understanding and to draw the map, providing a totally original data communication through a combination of geographic text and image. With this, he managed to merge into a single work, history, geography, economics, statistics and maps, reaching an equilibrium graph with outstanding performance.
