A 1690 French guidebook to Rome, published in Rome by Giovanni Francesco Buagni and sold by François Leon, aimed at foreign travellers seeking the city's churches, relics and antiquities. Its woodcut views show Roman ruins, palace courtyards and church façades rendered in fine parallel hatching, useful for designers wanting a historical engraved townscape look with crisp outlines and dense shading.
