PTOLEMAEUS, Claudius (2nd century). Geographia. Venice: Vincenzo Valgrisi, 1562.
First edition of Gioseppe Moleto's Latin re-translation of Ptolemy, based on that of Bilibald Pirckheimer of 1525. The maps are largely the same plates as appeared the previous year, with a few minor details changed. Six maps relate to the Americas, in addition to the two modern world maps, and 19 maps relate to Asia. Other maps include South Africa, the Arctic, after the famous Zeno map first published in 1558, and Scandinavia, after Jakob Ziegler, 1532. Nordenskiold Collection 2, 217; Phillips Atlases 372; Sabin 66489.
3 parts in one volume, quarto (230 x 161mm). 64 double-page engraved maps after Giacomo Gastaldi and others, woodcut printer's device on title-page, numerous woodcut illustrations (small, light dampstain in some lower margins, short wormhole/track just extending into plate edge in maps 11-32). 20th-century vellum (short split at lower joint). Provenance: ‘valeror[um]’ on title – a few marginal annotations.
