Condition: molto buono. Incisione in rame (mm 405x500) e grandi margini, titolo entro nastro inciso al centro del margine superiore, descrizione e legenda con 29 richiami nell'angolo inferiore sinistro. Rara pianta della città di Torino fortificata e dei suoi dintorni, edita a Parigi da Antoine Coquart (1668-1707).

Bell'esemplare a grandi margini, piccoli difetti nei margini bianchi. Book.
