Venetia, part of a larger map drawing probably by Georg Braun and Franz Hogenberg, included in Civitates Orbis Terrarum, Vol. 1, p. 44, Cologne, 1593-1618.
This is an aerial view of what the Arsenal looked like in late 16th- or early 17th-century Venice. This is the rightmost corner of a much larger depiction of Venice with merchant ships and gondolas dotting the water. Workers can be seen working on a new ship within the Arsenal in the top right section of the complex.
