Etching with good contrasts and sharp details. Signed on plate “Cavalier Piranesi del. ed inc...” on lower-left margin.

Piranesi, printed and collected by his son Francesco. Image dimension: cm 53 x 38.5. Giovanni Battista Piranesi Undoubtedly Piranesi was one of the most important engravers in 18th century even if he was well-known as an architect and an archaeologist: the greatest engraver in the period from Rembrandt a Goya. The generations after him have continued to imagine the Ancient Rome as the artist has portrayed his magnificent in "Vedute". References: L.
