Antichità Di Cora
Antichità di Cora is a 1764 archaeological and architectural survey by Giovanni Battista Piranesi, published in Rome for scholars and architects interested in ancient Roman building. The plates show the ruined temple of Hercules at Cora as measured elevations, sections, plans and ruin views. A designer could take from them the strict orthographic drawing of classical columns, pediments and stone courses, plus the atmospheric etched ruins of overgrown masonry.
