There are still few books of photographs of watermarks taken by x-ray, a method that is so much more accurate than traditional tracing that it makes much of the existing watermark literature more or less obsolete. This volume will usefully sit on the shelf alongside David Woodward's Catalogue of Watermarks in Italian Printed Maps c. 1540-1600, which was published in 1996. Print Quarterly, Vol. 34 (June 2017), p. 226. Un album di grandi dimensioni che comprende, dopo una rapida introduzione che permette pero di navigare tra le provenienze delle diverse carte analizzate, una serie di fotografie ai raggi X di circa 300 filigrane italiane a cavallo tra XVIII e XIX secolo. Edoardo Barbieri, Universita Cattolica, Milano. In: L'almanacco bibliografico, No. 40 (dicembre 2016), p. 24.
