This six-sheet map of Venice, published by Stefano Scolari, illustrates a view that remarkably depicts all the city’s monuments, buildings, canals, and outer islands with extraordinary precision. The scene is animated by gondolas and other boats in the canals, while larger vessels, including the famous Bucentaur—the state galley of the Doges of Venice—are shown in the lagoon. The map includes unique details such as the shipyard beneath the Arsenal, the lumber yard with workers, the area of the Venetian Jewish Ghetto (the Ghetto), and decorative elements like the dedication to Ambassador Angelo Corraro, the coat of arms, and an elaborate compass rose.

At the center of the map is a depiction of the Ascension event, with the 1606 Bucentaur in the foreground as it proceeds through the lagoon surrounded by other Venetian vessels. This second state of the view, originally issued in 1660, is extremely rare; one example is held at the Newberry Library in Chicago.
