The work
Carefully crafted archaeological view of Rome, published at the end of the 16th century
This beautiful map of Rome is based on the influential 12-sheet wall map by Giovanni Battista Falda, published in 1676. The map is in extraordinary detail, featuring streets, churches, houses, gardens, squares, bridges and gates, with the Vatican in the foreground. The legends at the sides of the map include an index of 473 locations.
The city, built on the famous Seven Hills, is surrounded by its ancient walls and crossed by the Tiber River. Numerous monuments and historical sites, still existing today, are visible, including the Colosseum, the Pantheon, Piazza del Popolo, the Basilica of St. John Lateran, Castel Sant'Angelo and the Vatican, dominated by the dome of St. Peter's Basilica and the great oval colonnade by Gianlorenzo Bernini that surrounds the square below.
The map is enriched by many allegorical representations. Saint Peter is depicted holding a large golden key, the figure of Justice appears, and several figures in Roman clothing animate the scene. In all, a very decorative and detailed map.
This edition of the map dates from around 1710 and features a reworking of the title cartouche. The first edition was published in 1694 by Halma and van der Aa.
