Item Details
Description
  • Title: 1574 Ruscelli World Mariner's Map - Carta Marina Nuova Tavola
  • Cartographer: G Ruscelli
  • Year / Place: 1574, Venice

    This is an excellent world mariner's map. The landmasses are shown with little interior detail but with a fair number of coastal place names. The North American continent is shown with the western coastline extending to join Asia, and the eastern coastline connects to Greenland and then onto Scandinavia. The continent is illustrated with a large inland sea, often referred to as the Sea of Verazzano. One of the few inland features shown is Mexico (City) on the an island. Below South America is a huge island of Tierra del Fuego. Expectedly, Australia and nearby islands are absent. Loxodromic lines cross the map radiating from sixteen focal points and the sea is stipple engraved. This Ruscelli map is based on Gastaldi's map of 1548. Italian text on verso.
