1779. Map. Engraving with contemporary hand coloring.
Detailed map of the eastern part of Ireland, being the provinces of Ulster and Leinster. Safe sounding are noted along with towns and forests. A beautiful cartouche of fish and a fish net surround the title. Antonio Zatta (1775-1797) was the most prominent Italian map publisher of the late 18th century. His Venice-based publishing company produced maps that mark an important transition from 18th- to 19th-century cartographic styles. He updates and redefines the traditional title cartouche by replacing the mythic elements common in earlier maps with more representative images.
