The print, taken from Theatrum civitatum et admirandorum Italiae, is an exquisite example of cartography artistry during that era. In this full-length illustration, we see a stunning landscape with lush greenery and rolling hills as far as the eye can see.

The map itself is meticulously detailed, featuring old-fashioned Western script to indicate directions and locations within Padova province.
