Roisecco, Gregorio · 1750 · Roma : Gregorio Roisecco · 31 pictures

Roma antica, e moderna is a 1750 Roman guidebook by Gregorio Roisecco, published in Rome for travellers and readers of its churches, palaces and antiquities. Its engravings show a fountain with a niche and inscription panel, a classical palace facade above a riverside quay, a round castle beside a bridge, and a walled compound with courtyards and small figures. A designer could take from them the crisp hatched linework and architectural staging typical of eighteenth-century Roman topographical prints.
