Koeman's Atlantes Neerlandici

Project Atlantes Neerlandici

Teatro del Mondo di Abraamo Ortelio. Venice: Domenico Lovisa, 1697

In 1697 the Venetian published Domenico Lovisa published three different editions of the same work. It will be included as kind of appendix in the new edition of Koeman's Atlantes Neerlandici since it is a copy of Ortelius's Epitome and because Koeman included some of these Italian copies in his original Atlantes Neerlandici.
For the list of copies I need to know which edition is in which library. Since I can't visit all libraries myself, I will give here the main characteristics of the three editions.
