Il Battistero, Ora Oratorio Di Santa Chiara 1899

"Il Battistero, Ora Oratorio Di Santa Chiara" is an 1899 engraving by Italian artist Giuseppe Barberis (c. 1840-c. 1917) depicting a church structure, likely in Italy. The artwork is a detailed depiction of a baptistery, featuring a central octagonal structure with a dome and a cross atop. The octagon is further adorned with a series of arches, suggesting a cloistered space, while the exterior features additional structures, including a smaller church. The use of linework and shading in the engraving creates a realistic portrayal of the architecture and its surrounding environment. The artwork would be of interest to those interested in Italian architecture, religious history, and 19th-century printmaking.
