Nicolò Nelli: Cipro, Venice,1570 295x350

Dimensions: 136 x 190mm.

This rare and intricate map captures the early Ottoman Empire naval campaigns against Cyprus under Venetian rule. It illustrates the Venetian fleet surrounding Cyprus, oriented towards the east to highlight the looming Ottoman threat. The map reflects events during Sultan Selim II's full-scale invasion, which led to the fall of Nicosia in September 1570 and Famagusta in August 1571, culminating in Ottoman control of the island.

An exceptional find for collectors of Ottoman-Venetian history and 16th-century cartography.
