**RT @LandsknechtPike:**

In 1500 Jacopo de' Barbari made this incredible huge aerial view map of Venice.

It measures 1.345 x 2.818 metres, made out of 6 woodcut blocks. It took three years to finish it.

The level of detail is simply amazing!

It was basically the Renaissance version of "Google Earth".
