This is a photograph of the columbarium of Livia Augusta, the wife of Augustus, and the freedmen and servants of Caesar’s household. It is a double page spread from the 1877 book *Sepulchrum Libertonum Livia Augusta*, which focuses on the Roman tombs, particularly those of freedmen. The photograph shows the remains of a large vineyard in the area where the columbarium was originally located. The photographer used a wide-angle lens to capture the large expanse of the structure. The photograph provides visual context for the historical text that surrounds it.
