Nuova Carta della Moscovia o Russia

Amsterdam: Giovanni Battista Albrizzi.

Map. Uncolored copper plate engraving. Image measures 11" x 13.25".

Beautifully detailed map of the area between the Gulf of Finland and the Ob River with attention to geographic features. Minor stains in full original margins. Giovanni Battista Albrizzi (1698-1777) was a prominent Venetian publisher of books and maps. He inherited his business from his father and was part of a family active in publishing and bookselling in Venice for 150 years. In addition, he edited a weekly bulletin, Novelle della Repubblica delle Lettere, which reviewed and commented on books published throughout Europe. This scarce map is from Atlante Novissimo Che Contiene tutte le parti del Mondo, an Italian edition of De Lisle's Atlas. Albrizzi worked with Isaac Tirion, a Dutch publisher, to update the maps for this edition.
