Painting Description
"Mappa Topografica Della Citta Di Napoli E De' Suoi Contorni" is a historically significant topographic map of the city of Naples and its surroundings, created by Giovanni Carafa, Duke of Noja, with the assistance of Nicolo Carletti, an engineer. This map, which dates back to the 18th century, is notable for its detailed representation of the urban and rural landscape of Naples and its vicinity during a period of significant development and change.
The map is a testament to the cartographic and scientific advancements of the time, reflecting the Enlightenment's emphasis on empirical observation and precision in mapping. Giovanni Carafa, a nobleman with a keen interest in science and cartography, embarked on this ambitious project to produce a map that was not only accurate but also aesthetically pleasing. He employed Nicolo Carletti, whose expertise in surveying and engineering was crucial in achieving the high level of detail and accuracy that the map is known for.
The "Mappa Topografica" is considered an important document for the study of Naples' urban history, as it captures the city before the many changes brought about by subsequent urban planning and development. It provides valuable insights into the city's structure, land use, and the relationship between the urban core and the surrounding countryside during the 18th century.
As a work of both art and science, the map is an example of the craftsmanship and intellectual pursuits of the era, showcasing the interplay between aesthetics and the pursuit of knowledge. It remains an essential resource for historians, geographers, and art historians, offering a snapshot of Naples at a time when cartography was becoming an increasingly precise and influential tool in understanding and managing the complexities of urban environments.
