This refined antique map of Sicily and Sardinia, created by Lorenz Fries in 1525, represents a valuable example of Renaissance cartography. Printed on paper using woodcut and enhanced with delicate period colors, the work stands out for its compositional elegance and attention to geographical detail, offering a vivid representation of the two major Mediterranean islands and the surrounding Italian coasts. The title "Tabula Moderna Italie" and the presence of Latin text on the verso, enclosed in elaborate Renaissance-style frames, lend further charm and historical value to this piece
