RUGGIERI, F. / BOUCHARD, G. - Pianta Della Citta di Firenze nelle seu vere misure colla descrizione dei luoghi piu notabili di ciascun Quartiere.

A highly decorative plan of Florence by Ferdinando Ruggieri. In addition to the detailed plan of the City, it includes fine decorative embellishments and demonstrates the extraordinary engraving style which characterizes the highest skill levels of Italian copper plate engraving work of the period.

Ferdinando Ruggieri's plan of Venice was first drawn in 1731 and is one of the most important and sought after plans of Florence from the period. This version of the plan was included in Giuseppe Zocchi's (1711-1767) monumental illustrated work on Florence and Tuscany, printed in 1755.
