Graevius, Johannes Georgius [Hrsg.], Aa, Pieter van der [Mitarb.], Aa, Pieter van der [Bearb.] · 1722 · 51 pictures

A 1722 Latin-titled collection of Venetian views edited by Johannes Georgius Graevius and engraved for Pieter van der Aa, published in Leiden for readers interested in the churches, colleges and monuments of Venice. Its engravings are plain architectural views of church façades and their surrounding squares, with small figures of townsfolk, boatmen and passers-by that give scale and a sense of daily street life, useful to a designer wanting clean one-point perspective and period crowd detail.
