A map of Venice printed on twelve plates, surrounded by vignettes of Venetian buildings pasted separately. Lettered above: ICONOGRAFICA RAPPRESENTATIONE DELLA INCLITA  CITTÀ DI VENEZIA CONSACRATA AL REGGIO SERENISSIMO DOMINIO VENETO. In the water to the upper left, an allegorical figure representing Venice appears with dolphins and sea animals and the lion of St Mark. Dedicated at lower right to Alvese III Mocenigo, Doge of Venice from 1722-32. Inscribed lower right: Appresse Lodovico Furlanetto [sic] Sopra il Bonte de' Baretteri.

Ludovico Ughi's map was the first to be carried out using accurate field surveys, and is thus extremely important in the history of Venetian cartography. The map was first published by Giuseppe Baroni, and the vignettes down both sides of the map, possibly by Francesco Zucchi, are copied from Luca Carlevarijs' Fabriche e Vedute di Venezia (1703), then the best known set of prints of Venetian views. After Baroni's death the plates were sold to Lodovico Furnaletto, who replaced his name at lower right (as here) and reissued the map for many years.

The group of allegorical figures representing Venice was designed by Sebastiano Ricci, and a drawing of the group is in Anton Maria Zanetti the Elder's album of drawings by Ricci in the Accademia, Venice (no. 56).
