Description
English: The copper-engraved Quintinus map of Malta published in Franfurt in 1600 in ltaliae lIIustratae

"In the sixteenth century the work of Quintinus was published by various authors in the original Latin or in an Italian translation, I I but without the map. It was only in 1600 that his description was published in Germany with a map of Malta copied from Quintinus himself in the following book: Italiae lllustratae seu rerum, urbiumque Italicarum scriptores varii, notae meliores, Francoforti, in BibJiopolio Cambieriano. The map in this volume is of the same size as the original Quintinus. It measures 140 x 192mm, and it is a copperplate engraving instead of a woodcut. The shipping is slightly different, and the sea area is dotted without any wavy lines. The place names are identical except that the'S' of Sicilia is not reversed, while C. Spartinento

is misspelt C. Spartinemo [see page 120 infra]." (Alberto Ganado)
