About the Item

An authentic late 18th century engraving from the celebrated Rossi series of Roman statues and fountains, drawn and engraved by Francisco Aquila and published in Rome by Dom de Rossi “Alla Pace con Pruil,” circa 1775. This finely detailed copperplate engraving reflects the Grand Tour era’s fascination with classical antiquity and the documentation of Rome’s monumental sculpture. The composition demonstrates Aquila’s precise draftsmanship and refined line work, capturing the sculptural form with remarkable clarity and tonal depth. Published by the distinguished Roman print house of Dom de Rossi, whose atelier was instrumental in disseminating images of antiquities throughout Europe, the engraving served both scholarly and decorative purposes during the Enlightenment. Presented in a complementary frame, the work is well-suited for display in a study, library, or classically inspired interior. Its historical significance and strong decorative presence make it highly desirable among collectors of 18th century prints, Grand Tour engravings, and neoclassical works on paper.
