Scarce regional map of the Territory of Polesine and environs, published in Venice by Francois Santini.
The map shows the lower Po River region ending to the south of Venice.
Unlike many of the maps in Santini's atlas, this regional map of Italy is not drawn from De Vaugondy and is based upon Italian sources.
One of the most detailed maps of the region published in the mid-18th Century.
Paolo Santini (1729-1793) was an Venetian engraver known especially for his religious prints and fine cartographic engravings. He published in Venice and may have a been a member of the clergy. In his maps, he largely adopted and adapted the work of his French counterparts, especially the brothers de Vaugondy.
