The map of the ancient city of Viterbo, created by Pietro Bertelli and published in the famous Theatrum Urbium Italicarum in Venice in 1599, offers a detailed and evocative view of this medieval city. The engraving carefully depicts the fortified city, highlighting its massive walls and the main gates that controlled access, elements essential for the defense and urban organization of the time. The bird’s-eye perspective allows an appreciation of the architectural ensemble and the strategic position of Viterbo within the surrounding countryside, blending history and landscape.
The map is enriched by two large coats of arms that enhance the depiction, giving the view heraldic and symbolic value, and emphasizing the city’s identity and prestige within the Italian Renaissance context. Bertelli’s engraving quality, with its precision and clarity, makes this map a work of art celebrating the political and cultural importance of Viterbo at the end of the 16th century.
