Pub Note:
"Domenico Zenoi engraved this mirrored bird's-eye map of Constantinople (today's Istanbul) for Forlani's II Primo Libro Delle Citta of 1567. The view shows the city from the eastern shore, with its fortifications and major buildings, many identified within the extensively keyed gazetteer listing 57 public buildings and individual city gates. It is engraved in reverse, showing the town wrongly situated on the right shore of the great bay, the Golden Horn."
