Bella e rara carta geografica della Toscana pubblicata da Matteo Florimi a Siena nel 1600 (firma in basso a destra) basata sulla mappa della medesima area disegnata da Girolamo Bellarmato e pubblicata da Claudio Duchetti a Roma nel 1558. Girolamo Bellarmato (Siena 1493 – 1560) fu matematico, ingegnere, architetto e cartografo e la sua carta corografica della Toscana fu il modello cartografico almeno per mezzo secolo. Oltre al Florimi, si ispirarono alla Tuscia del Bellarmato anche Abraham Ortelius e Cornelis de Jode. Questo rara carta del Florimi è arricchita da inusuale e importante coloritura d’epoca.
