Veteres arcus Augustorum triumphis insignes, ex reliquiis quae Romae adhuc supersunt : cum imaginibus triumphalibus restituti
Veteres arcus Augustorum is a 1690 Roman folio of engraved plates by Giovanni Pietro Bellori, Pietro Santi Bartoli, Pietro Locatelli and Robert van Audenaerde, reproducing the reliefs of ancient Roman triumphal arches for scholars and collectors. The plates show processions of armoured soldiers, horsemen, captives and standard-bearers, rendered as crisp, densely hatched engravings with Latin captions beneath, offering a designer strong models for classical frieze composition, dense crowd grouping and historical costume.
