The hand‑colored copperplate engraving of Tusculum\/Frascati—reproduced from Giacomo Lauro’s 1622 map—feels like an old atlas page reborn: streets, villas, temples and ruins rendered in crisp, vibrant hues. Hung on a kitchen wall, leaned on a bookshelf, or placed on a mantle, it invites quiet study and sparks conversation. It suits someone who loves history, cartography, or Italian countryside scenes and wants an object that looks lived‑in and studied rather than mass‑produced.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn the legend at the bottom of this Lauro plate, the villas\/estate complexes called out are: B — Villa\/Palace “Mondragone” (the “sumptuous palace” associated with Pope Paul V) C — Villa of Cardinal Aldobrandini (Villa Aldobrandini) E — “Ruffina” Villa of Cardinal Sforza (often written as Villa Rufinella\/Ruffinella in other sources) F — Villa Tusculana (Villa Tuscolana) G — Villa of Cardinal Borghese (Villa Borghese) I — Villa of the Duke of Sora K — Villa of Cardinal Ludovisi, called “Belpoggio” P — Arigona (an estate\/villa name tied in the legend to D. Vareij) Q — Villa “Acqua Viva” of Cardinal Montalto R — Villa of the Duke of Altemps Also listed (not exactly “villas,” but mapped landmarks): A (Tusculum town), D (fountains\/waterworks), H (Camaldolese hermitage), and L\/M\/O (religious sites).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChoose glossy or matte to match your room’s light and mood; the faithful full‑color reproduction keeps all the tiny engraving details intact. This tile is a small, tactile way to bring archival charm and a sense of place to housewarmings, study nooks, or any cozy corner that benefits from a map with a story.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProduct features - Vibrant, archival full‑color reproduction - Available glossy or matte finish - Highly detailed reproduction of 1622 Giacomo Lauro map\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCare instructions - Wipe the dust off gently with a clean, dry or wet microfiber cloth\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEU representative\u003c\/strong\u003e: HONSON VENTURES LIMITED, gpsr@honsonventures.com, 3, Gnaftis House flat 102, Limassol, Mesa Geitonia, 4003, CY\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct information\u003c\/strong\u003e: Generic brand, 2 year warranty in EU and Northern Ireland as per Directive 1999\/44\/EC\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCare instructions\u003c\/strong\u003e: Wipe the dust off gently with a clean, dry or wet microfiber cloth\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Printify","offers":[{"title":"6\" × 8\" \/ Glossy","offer_id":54856075313524,"sku":"31642247664355303588","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"6\" × 8\" \/ Matte","offer_id":54856075346292,"sku":"17833503175641777267","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1004\/7612\/5556\/files\/1996397242793006008_2048.jpg?v=1782575337","url":"https:\/\/www.exquisitehistory.com\/products\/antique-illustrated-map-of-tusculum-ceramic-tile-antique-italian-photo-tile","provider":"Exquisite History","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
