"Half of Building [Templum Saturni]" is an engraving from a series of architectural prints by Lambert Suavius, a 16th-century Dutch artist, titled "Ruinarum variarum fabricarum delineationes pictoribus caeterisque id genus artificibus multum utiles." This particular print, created in 1554, showcases a detailed perspective of the Temple of Saturn, a prominent Roman temple. The engraving presents a half view of the building, highlighting its architectural features, including the portico with its columns and the domed roof. Suavius's meticulous attention to detail renders the Roman structure with impressive clarity, making this print a valuable resource for artists and architects of the time.
