PAY IN THREE INSTALLMENTS WITH PAYPAL

This detailed map of the Duchy of Milan, engraved and published by Jan Jansson in the 17th century, offers a remarkably accurate representation of the heart of Lombardy during the Spanish rule. The geographic and political center is Milan, from which roads, rivers, and borders stem, that outline the administrative and military structure of the duchy. The map extends from the Po River in the south to the areas of Como and Bergamo in the north, highlighting the region's strategic importance.

Jan Jansson (1588–1664), one of the most important Dutch cartographers of his time, inherited and expanded the publishing tradition of the Hondius family, contributing to the publication of one of the most extensive atlases of the Baroque era, the Atlas Novus. His map of the Duchy of Milan reflects the high technical and artistic level achieved in Dutch cartography, with crisp engravings, legible place names, and ornamental decorations typical of the period.

This map, of great geographical value, is also a historical and cultural document that provides a vivid image of a region at the center of 17th-century European political tensions. A work of great fascination for collectors, scholars, and lovers of Italian history.
