Description
Etching, around 1745, signed in plate. A very good impression with full margins, in perfect condition.
Taken from the “Varie Vedute di Roma Antica, e Moderna. Disegnate e Intagliate da Celebri Autori” printe in Rome by Fausto Amidei, 1748.
The collection, in 4th oblong, is published by Fausto Amidei in various editions from 1745 to 1750, and by Giovanni Bouchard in 1752. It contained an engraved frontispiece and 93/96 plates, of which 47 signed by Piranesi and others by Giraud, Carloni, Nicole, Mogalli, Bellicard, Le Geay, and Anesi.

Was a French neoclassical architect with an unsatisfactory career largely spent in Germany. His artistic personality remained shadowy until recently, though he was allowed to have had numerous pupils among the avant-garde of neoclassicism. He won the Prix de Rome in architecture in 1732.
