Sant’Agnese fuori le mura in Rom 17 - 1828

This pencil drawing by Friedrich Maximilian Hessemer, titled "Sant’Agnese fuori le mura in Rom", depicts a detailed view of the Basilica di Sant'Agnese fuori le mura, a 4th-century church in Rome, Italy. The artist's attention to detail captures the building's architectural elements, particularly the bell tower which stands tall in the center of the composition. The drawing, dated 17 - 1828, offers a glimpse into the architectural landscape of Rome during this period and showcases Hessemer's skill in architectural sketching. The drawing, now housed in the Städel Museum, serves as a valuable historical record and artistic testament to the basilica’s architectural grandeur.
