Delle magnificenze di Roma antica e moderna is a 1747 Roman guidebook of engraved views by Giuseppe Vasi, printed in Rome at the Chracas press for travellers and collectors of the city's monuments. Its plates are etched street views of palaces, piazzas and churches, rendered in fine parallel hatching with figures, carriages and trees placed to give scale and depth, a model for designers planning architectural perspective and crowd scenes.
