The "Map of Vicenza" is a notable historical city map created by Georg Braun and Franz Hogenberg, who were among the most important cartographers of the late 16th and early 17th centuries. This map is part of their seminal work, "Civitates Orbis Terrarum," which is often considered the first systematic city atlas. Published in six volumes between 1572 and 1617, the atlas contained over 500 maps and views of cities from all around the world, providing an unprecedented visual record of urban life during the Renaissance period.

The "Map of Vicenza" specifically depicts the Italian city of Vicenza during a time when it was experiencing significant growth and architectural transformation under the influence of the renowned Renaissance architect Andrea Palladio. The map is not only a cartographic document but also a work of art, reflecting the meticulous engraving and attention to detail characteristic of Braun and Hogenberg's work. It provides a bird's-eye view of the city, showcasing its streets, buildings, public spaces, and fortifications, and often includes embellishments such as the city's coat of arms, figures in local dress, and other decorative elements.

As a historical document, the "Map of Vicenza" offers valuable insights into the urban planning and architectural heritage of the city during the Renaissance. It serves as an important resource for historians, urban planners, and art historians, as well as for anyone interested in the historical development of European cities. The map is not only significant for its artistic and cartographic merits but also for its contribution to the documentation of urban landscapes in a period of significant change and development.
