This anonymous 18th-century map depicts the Duchy of Milan, an important Italian region during the Renaissance and Baroque eras. The map, crafted between 1700 and 1735, details the territory's boundaries, major cities, and river networks, using a combination of color and linework. "Le Duché de Milan, avec ses dépendances," the title inscribed in a decorative cartouche, reinforces the importance of the region. Though the cartographer remains unidentified, the detailed and precise depiction of the Duchy of Milan, including surrounding regions, reflects the growing interest in accurate geographical representation during this period.
