This intricate etching by Giovanni Battista Piranesi, a master of architectural illustration, showcases a cross-section of Roman houses. The detailed rendering exposes the building's internal structure, including its roof, columns, walls, and foundation. Piranesi's work, characterized by its meticulous detail and dramatic use of light and shadow, provided a unique glimpse into the construction of ancient Rome and remains a valuable resource for architectural historians.
