Abstract: The graphic representation of a town or city has always been studied in different disciplines. Geographers, Civil Engineers, Architects and Urban Planners have established different graphic points of view regarding the representation of settlements and their planning. The graphic criteria used in representing the town have changed due to the logical evolution of instrumental techniques. However, it is not just the improved drawing tools or graphic media that have enhanced the representation of the planning and of the town but also the appearance of historical circumstances that have changed various cultural concepts directly affecting the shape of towns as well as their representation. This article analyses and reflects as to the different instrumental and conceptual historical events that have significantly altered the graphic representation of a town from ancient times to the Baroque. © 2014, Asociatia Geographia Technica.
