PAY IN THREE INSTALLMENTS WITH PAYPAL 

 The 1534 map of Venice and Murano by Benedetto Bordone is a refined cartographic representation notable for its accuracy and rich detail, characteristic of Renaissance works. Bordone, a famous Venetian cartographer and engraver, presents a bird’s-eye view of the two cities, with particular emphasis on the intricate network of canals, bridges, and iconic architecture of Venice, as well as the island of Murano, renowned for its glassmaking tradition. The map captures the urban life and territorial organization of these important lagoon cities in the 16th century, combining technical precision with refined artistic taste.

Created within the context of the Italian Renaissance, this work reflects both the strategic and commercial significance of Venice and the cultural prestige of Murano. Bordone’s cartographic depiction is not only a geographical tool but also a historical document of great value, allowing us to admire the city at a time when it was one of the Mediterranean’s main maritime and mercantile powers. It is a precious testimony for scholars, collectors, and enthusiasts of historical cartography and Venetian history.
