TABVLA Generalis SAUBAVDIAE, (1682). In 1682 the heirs of Joan Blaeu published the fourth and fifth volume of the Town books of Italy. These concluded the series published since 1663. This map of Savoye, an engraving by Joannes de Broen (1649-c. 1730) opened the fifth volume dedicated to the cities of Savoye. De Broen used a general map of Savoye-Piemonte which was published in 1680 by the Italian cartographer Giovanni Thomaso Borgonio (c. 1620-1684).
