Summary

Giussepe Rosaccio: Veduta Korčula / Crvzola

ROSACCIO, Giuseppe (Gioseppo) ca 1530-1620, physician, travel writer, geographer, cosmographer and cartographer (Pordenone, 1530 - 1603 (1620)). He studied philosophy, medicine and law at the University of Padua. After passing the prescribed exams, he became a laureate. He wanted to get a job, but there was no job for him in Pordenone. He therefore decided to change his environment and look for a job in the ancient town of Tricesimo, known since Roman times. According to Liruti, Rosaccio lived in Tricesimo in 1552, performing not only medical service, but also other city services. He also studied law in Padua, and based on that, he was entrusted with the position of judge in civil litigation in Tricesimo. Lirutia also managed to find in the court files for 1561 and 1575 Rosacca in the position of "Vicecapitano della Gestaldia". The fruit of his long and rich life and work is about 40 works, both large and small.

His most famous works are "Teatro del Cielo e Terra Florence" from 1594, the edition of Ptolemy's "Mode elementa" from 1604 and "Teatro del Cielo" from 1615. The most significant for Croatian countries is his isolare "Viaggio da Venetia a Constantinopoli" with depictions of all major islands and ports on the way from Venice to Constantinople, which is from 1597. In addition to the edition from 1574, biographers mention editions from 1598, 1601, 1604, 1606. The edition from 1606 contains maps of Istria, the islands of Rab, Pag, Hvar, Korcula, maps of Split and Trogir, veduta Rovinj, Pula, Osor, Šibenik, Skradin, Klis, then plans for Zadar and Dubrovnik. The author of the copper engraving is not the same in all editions. Thus, the author of the copperplate from 1574 was Marco Sadeler, a descendant of an old Belgian copperplate family, and the plateplates for the 1598 and 1606 editions were prepared by the Venetian copperplate engraver Giacomo Franco. The work Viaggio cartographically and succinctly communicates basic information about the travel route Venice - Dubrovnik (by sea) and Dubrovnik - Istanbul (by land), that is, Venice - Istanbul by sea.
