Zicht op de Tempel van Vesta c. 1748

"Zicht op de Tempel van Vesta" (c. 1748) is an etching by Philothée François Duflos, a French artist known for his architectural drawings. The artwork depicts the Temple of Vesta in Rome, a circular temple dedicated to the Roman goddess of hearth and home. The drawing is characterized by its precise detail and realistic representation of the ancient structure, with an emphasis on the temple's cylindrical form and its surrounding cityscape. The artist's attention to detail and the inscription in Italian, "Tempio della Dea Vesta," adds to the historical and architectural value of this print.
