EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection transports us back in time to ancient Rome. The image showcases the remains of a covered portico and cryptoporticus, located in a grand villa just five miles outside of Rome on the Frascati Road. This particular print is part of the renowned Vedute di Roma series by Italian artist Giovanni Battista Piranesi. The etching, dating back to 1766, captures the essence of Roman architecture with incredible precision and detail. It depicts the first state of this historical site, known as Domitian's Villa, which was once owned by Emperor Domitian himself. Piranesi's mastery shines through as he expertly portrays every intricate element of this structure on his sheet measuring 20 11/16 x 26 9/16 inches (525 x 675 cm). His ability to bring life to these ancient ruins is truly remarkable. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported into a world where history comes alive. We can almost imagine walking through these majestic halls and experiencing firsthand what life was like during the height of Roman civilization. This print serves as a testament to Piranesi's talent and his dedication to preserving Rome's rich architectural heritage for generations to come. It is not only an exquisite piece of art but also a valuable historical document that allows us to appreciate and understand our past more deeply.
