This is a 1713 Roman engraved folio of altar and chapel designs by Giovanni Giacomo de Rossi, issued from his printshop at the Pace in Rome for architects, sculptors and patrons. The pages show elevations, side views and plans of celebrated altars, with sculpted figures, coffered vaults, columns and pediments drawn in fine hatched line. A designer could draw from their classical proportions, layered niche arrangements and framed sculptural tableaux.
