This detailed engraving by Mariano Vasi depicts the Piazza del Quirinale in Rome, a grand public square in front of the Quirinal Palace. Created between 1747 and 1761, the print captures the architecture of the palace, including the obelisk at its center, and the surrounding buildings. The scene includes people and horses, giving a sense of the lively atmosphere of the square in the 18th century. The perspective and fine details, typical of Vasi's work, make this an informative and aesthetically pleasing portrayal of this important Roman landmark.
