Verona Illustrata: Contiene La Notizia Delle Cose In Questa Citta' Piu' Osservabili

Maffei, Scipione, Vallarsi, Jacopo [Bearb.], Berno, Pierantonio [Bearb.] · 1732 · 35 pictures

Verona Illustrata, a 1732 Italian antiquarian guide to the monuments of Verona by Scipione Maffei, with later editing by Vallarsi and Berno, aimed at scholars and travellers interested in the city's Roman remains. The engravings show classical relief sculptures: rows of draped figures in procession, a sarcophagus-style frieze, and a seated pair beside wave-like fluting, all drawn in fine line with plain outlines that suit reference diagrams, borders, or classical motif studies.
