Some others panoramas were collected in the Archive of 
Brera, but in same cases the information regarding the 
technique used was not found. 
Another drawing showing mountains was contained in the 
book of measurements of the astronomer Oriani. It was 
realized in 1820 and represented the Mont. Orfano, 
observed from Solferino, in the South of Garda Lake 
(Italy) (Figure 6). The drawing was made from the top of 
Solferino hill, from which the view was enough wide, 
during the campaign of the geodetic survey of the medium 
parallel arc, as far as the Adriatic Sea; probably the 
"camera lucida" was used. 
During the surveying for the Second Topographic Map of 
Lombardy, Carlini drew another panorama. It consisted of 
a strip of tissue paper, 90 cm large and 10 cm wide, 
representing the mountain profile as observed from Mont. 
Orfano (BS) (Figure 7). Notes on it confirm that the author 
is Carlini.

4. THE PANORAMA FROM LECCO 
The panorama of the hilly landscape of Lecco (Italy), 
recently found in papers collected by Carlini, belongs to 
this period. It covers an arc of 180 degrees, from Mont. 
Barro to Mont. St. Martino. It is a strip of two papers, 95 
cm large and 15 cm wide, sewn one to other (Figure 8). 
This panorama is very interesting, because it shows every 
details of the landscape with accuracy and regular 
proportions, as it was made in scale. For these reasons 
and for its style it can not be a simple sketch made by free 
hand.
