508 # # $a The unnumbered, folding map is signed, 'Auctor d'Anville', 'Gravée par Tardieu l'ainé', 'Ecrite par Pelicier'.

The six maps are signed as drawn by Ercole Visconti, And. Alippi or Luigi Faldi, and as engraved by Vinco. Feoli (pl. 1 is signed 'Luigi Campani diresse. Vinco. Feoli incise'). Additionally the name of the surveyor is also given (Clem. Palmieri, Giuseppe Pellegrini, L. Ximenes, Giac. Passerini, Luigi Bettarini, Franc. Marchi).

Seven of the eight views (pl. 7-13, 51) are signed by darughtsmen L. Campani, And. Alippi, Angiolini, Fil. Scabroni (one is unsigned by a draughtsman), and all are signed as engraved by V. Feoli. Most other plates are signed by draughtsman and engraver. Draughtsmen were M.A. Palmerini, C. Ansidei, Vo. Gozzini, L. de Vegni, Riepenhausen, Luigi Scotti, L. Campani, G. Fiotti, G. Ruspi Rom. Engravers were Riepenhausen, Lasinio figlio or G, Ruspi.

No plate carries a publisher's imprint; but the unnumbered folding map includes the address of the engraver, 'Tardieu l'ainé, rue de Sorbonne, no. 10. à Paris'.
520 2 # $a The publication-date is repeated on pl. 63. The work had first been published in 1810 at Florence, as an accompaniment to Giuseppe Micali's L'Italia avanti il dominio dei Romani (4 vols., Florence, 1810).

The plates show the following:[unnumbered] map, 'Italia Antiqua Cum Insulis'; 1-6. maps of Volterra, Populonia, Roselle, Cossa, Fiesole, Cortona; 7-67. views, and outline drawings of walls, bas-reliefs and other sculptures, paintings, gems. coins, paterae, mirrors, vase-paintings and inscriptions. Most subjects shown in the outline drawings appear to be drawn from myths, but some show domestic or rural activities.
561 # # $a The title-page is inscribed in pencil (over an erased inscription), 'Presented to the Library of the Royal Academy by C.L. Eastlake librarian. Received Oct 21. 1844 Thos Uwins'. Uwins had succeed Eastlake as the Academy's Librarian following the latter's resignation from the post on 18 December 1844.

Eastlake's gift of this copy was no doubt intended to make good the loss of the atlas volume illustrating the original 1810 edition of Micali's L'Italia avanti il dominio dei Romani, which is recorded in the 1841 printing of the RA Library catalogue, but absent from the 1864 edition.
563 # # $a 19th-century marbled-papered boards; rebacked and recornered in 1998 by James Brockman, spine lettered 'Micali Antichi Monumenti D'Italia', 'R.A.' and '1821'.
