Calcografia di Roma, ovvero, Le piante, vendute, piazze, chiese, palazzi, bassirilievi, statue ed altri monumenti antichi e moderni di questra superba citta' : incisi in rame e divisi in vari volumi
This is a 1779 Roman engraved volume, published in Rome by Giovanni Battista Cannetti and engraved by Serafino Giovannini and Domenico Porti, documenting the city's churches, palaces, squares and monuments for those interested in architecture. The pictures are fine line engravings of church facades and street views, each with a Latin caption, showing crisp orthogonal perspective and classical porticos that a designer could use for ordered, symmetrical architectural study.
