The elbow harbour
The coastline bends around a deep natural harbour, and the port's breakwaters and quays trace a sharp, sheltering curve at the heart of the map.

Ancona Map Poster & Print
Ancona, the capital of the Marche, takes its name from the Greek word for elbow, and the map shows why. The coastline bends sharply here, and the city wraps around a sheltered natural harbour on the inside of the curve. The old town rises steeply from the quays towards the Guasco hill, where the Cathedral of San Ciriaco overlooks the sea.
Along the harbour sit the Arch of Trajan, built for the emperor who enlarged the port, and the Mole Vanvitelliana, an eighteenth-century pentagonal building on its own artificial island. Beyond the old centre, straighter nineteenth-century streets extend inland, and further south the coast climbs towards the cliffs of Monte Conero.
An Ancona map poster brings the harbour, the headland and the city's different layers together. Tangled lanes on the hill, orderly avenues behind them and the arc of the waterfront make a strong composition, with a large expanse of open sea balancing the dense streets.

Mole Vanvitelliana
A five-sided former lazaretto built on an artificial island in the harbour, its pentagon is one of the most recognisable geometric shapes on any Italian waterfront.
Guasco hill
The oldest quarter climbs the headland to the Cathedral of San Ciriaco, with winding streets and steps that contrast with the straight avenues further inland.

Cur Ancona
Tabula quae aliquid significat
Ancona is a place people pass through on ferries to Croatia and Greece and then come back to for its own sake. A map of the harbour and the hill makes a lasting keepsake for residents, students at the university and anyone with memories of the Adriatic coast.
Personalise the title, subtitle and coordinates line, perhaps with a neighbourhood or a wedding date, and choose one of five styles: Classic black & white, Noir, Paper, Blueprint or Sand. It is available as a $9 HD download or a printed poster.
