The Map of the ancient city of Nocera, engraved by Pietro Bertelli and first appearing in the renowned Theatrum Urbium Italicarum of 1599 in Venice, offers a detailed and evocative view of this fortified city located in the Apennines. The engraving shows Nocera as a fortified mountain city, protected by robust walls that highlight its strategic defensive function in the Renaissance era. The precisely depicted access gates facilitate understanding of the city's entry and exit system, while the city's coat of arms visually dominates the composition, symbolizing its identity and prestige.
The surrounding landscape and urban structure are represented with a balance between rigor and refinement, typical of Bertelli's works. This map conveys the atmosphere of a small mountain town, harmoniously integrated into the natural Apennine context. An authentic cartographic masterpiece that brings the ancient city to life, a precious testament to 16th-century Italian history and culture.
