This title page from the 17th century, "Recueil de veue de plusieures edifices tant de Rome que des environs", features intricate scrollwork characteristic of the Baroque style. The artwork, engraved by the Dutch artist Israel Silvestre, was likely intended to adorn a collection of architectural illustrations, providing an ornamental flourish to the publication. It's a testament to the artistry of Silvestre, known for his detailed and expressive engravings. The title page, with its delicate flourishes and ornate framing, speaks to the grandeur of the architectural subjects within the book.
