ZALTIERI, Bolognini
fl. 1560's
Bolognini Zaltieri (fl. 1560's) was one of three men who dominated
the map-publishing trade in Venice. He had a prolific output, much of which
emanated, either in compilation, or in engraving, with Forlani, with the
focus on regions outside Italy.
His most famous publication is a
map of North America, published in 1566, which was the first separate printed
map of the region. Other maps published by him are a detailed plan
of Venice, with an extensive key below, a map of Ireland, of the Holy Land,
and two plans of Tunis.
He also issued a series of maps of the individual
provinces of the Low Countries, copied from Tramezini.
