ROS 5 Veduta della Colonna Antonina-Piassa Colonna 

Biography:

Liuig Rossini (1790-1857).  Italian artist. Like Giovanni Battista Piranesi, Rossini focused on antique Roman Architecture and rendered in exquisite detail classical architecture of Rome and its surrounding countryside.  This series of views was published between 1819-23 as "Le Antichita del Contorni di Roma" in Folio.  His views are often mistaken as being done by Battista Piranesi.  In contrast to Piranesi, he made greater use of the bucolic settings in his etchings of Roman ruins.

These images are all in excellent condition with light foxing throughout  as usual.
