This extraordinary map of the Gulf of Venice and the Adriatic Sea, published by Vincenzo Maria Coronelli in 1688, is one of the most decorative and detailed representations of the region from the 17th century. The work is enriched by a large cartouche featuring 23 city plans in elegant medallions and numerous coats of arms, most notably that of the Republic of Venice in the upper right corner, depicting the iconic Lion of Saint Mark holding a book with the motto “Pax tibi Marce, Evangelista meus.” More than a dozen additional coats of arms complete the composition, emphasizing the political and strategic significance of the area at the time.

The map was published at a crucial moment in Venetian history, at the onset of the Morean War, when the Republic was expanding its territories at the expense of the Ottoman Empire. Coronelli, considered one of the most important Italian cartographers, combined scientific rigor, artistic talent, and profound learning. His career led him to work for dukes and kings, producing monumental globes that brought him fame throughout Europe. This map fully embodies his distinctive style: refined, symbolic, and perfectly aligned with the grandeur of the Republic of Venice.
