About the Item
Plan of Rome is a beautiful original black and white etching, a rare and antique illustrated map of the eternal city of Rome, published in 1848.
Image Dimensions: 29.5 x 43 cm
Original title: Pianta di Roma elevata nel MDCCCXLVIII, engraved at the center of the higher margin.
This original print was the frontispiece of the book "Principali vedute di Roma" illustrated with 32 or 34 etchings (it depends on the edition) of Roman views by Alessandro Moschetti, published in Rome.
In the middle of the sheet, there is a high or "elevated" view of Rome, as the title suggests, and its main historical monuments numbered. On the right, there is a corresponding index of the most notable places (engraved all around the central plan of Rome) such as "Trajan's Forum, Roman Forum, Campidoglio, Temple of Vesta, Piazza Di S. Pietro in the Vatican, Colosseum, Pantheon and Pyramid of Cajo Cestio" .
In very good conditions, except for three rips of the paper restored and some thinnings of the paper, this is an interesting and precious piece to collect!
