Temple of Vesta 1850s

"Temple of Vesta" is a 19th-century photographic print by Pietro Dovizielli (1804-1885). It is a beautiful example of architectural photography that captures the ruins of the Roman temple of Vesta in Rome. The image focuses on the circular temple, with its impressive columns and a fountain in the foreground, offering a glimpse into the grandeur of Roman antiquity. The photograph, currently housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, provides a valuable record of the Temple of Vesta's state in the mid-19th century.
