Description

Interesting and rare topographical map of Rome on which are shown the interventions planned by the French Administration, concerning the enlargement of the port of Ripetta, the construction of embankments on the Tiber, the arrangement of Piazza del Popolo and the ascent to the Pincio.

The plan is based on the work of Philippe Camille De Tournon, who created it under the French administration in about 1814, but it was published 15 years later.

On the left "Explanation of some signs that can be seen in the plan" and the Index of the most remarkable monuments; on the right, the list of the XIV Rioni

Etching and engraving, printed on 20 plates of about 15.7 x 14.4 cm, mounted on canvas, in excellent condition. Original case in red cardboard.
