Description
English: This is Vincenzo Maria Coronelli's 1690 map of Montenegro. Covers the Dalmatian coast from Dubrovnik to Gjiri i Drinit, including all of modern day Montenegro as well as parts of adjacent Croatia, Albania, and Bosnia Herzegovina. Most of Coronelli's maps of the Dalmatian coast were intended to highlight the military victories of the Venetian Republic over the expansive Ottoman Turks. No exception, this map features notations throughout referring to various military battles for control of this hotly contested region. As a whole this is a splendid example of Coronelli's distinctive style at its finest, with detailed engraving, historical notes, armorial vignettes, and an elaborate title cartouche complete with a cherub riding a sea monster. Published for inclusion in Coronelli's stupendous 1690 Atlante Veneto .
