Illustration of the City of Trieste in the 17th Century

Ancient engraving of the city of Trieste: a panoramic view with walls enclosing the historic center overlooking the Adriatic Sea. At the top looms the Castle of San Giusto with the cathedral, while the sequence of bell towers and houses descends towards the fortified port. In the foreground appear the salt pans. Cartouches and coats of arms complete the scene.
