This 1779 Roman engraved volume, published in Rome by Giovanni Battista Cannetti and engraved by Serafino Giovannini and Domenico Porti, reproduces ancient monuments for collectors and students of Roman architecture. The plates copy carved reliefs, with rows of soldiers, horsemen, and captives set in ruled rectangular frames captioned in Latin, offering designers a dense source of classical battle compositions, armour, and crowded narrative layouts.
