A 1686 Amsterdam atlas-style book by Vincenzo Coronelli, a Venetian cosmographer, describing the Morea, Negroponte and Aegean and Adriatic ports for a learned audience of map collectors and travellers. Its pictures are engraved plans and views of fortresses, harbours and coastlines, drawn in fine black line on cream paper with scale bars and compass roses that a designer could borrow for vintage cartographic motifs.
