"Vue du Laconico, ou bain, et son bassin" is a black and white etching by Francesco Piranesi, created in 1805. The etching depicts a Roman bath, with a man standing in the foreground holding a staff. The artist's signature and title are visible at the bottom of the image. Piranesi is known for his detailed and accurate depictions of Roman architecture, and this etching is a testament to his skill. The artwork, housed in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, is an excellent example of Piranesi's work and offers a glimpse into the bathing practices of the Roman era.
