Vedute di Roma 

Giovanni Battista Piranesi was a renowned Italian artist, known for his dramatic etchings that captured the grandeur and decay of ancient Rome. "Veduta di Campo Vaccino" (View of the Roman Forum) is a prime example of his work, showcasing the ruins of the Roman Forum in meticulous detail. The etching depicts the Forum from an elevated perspective, emphasizing the scale and the grandeur of the ancient Roman buildings. This work, created using the etching technique, reflects Piranesi's fascination with the power and history of the Roman Empire and remains a cornerstone of his artistic legacy.
