Roma ricercata nel suo sito is a 1687 Italian guidebook to Rome, written by Fioravante Martinelli and printed in Rome by Francesco Tizzoni for the bookseller Francesco Leone, listing churches, theatres, palaces and monuments for travellers and readers. Its woodcut views show Roman buildings in plain black line, with a colonnaded temple front, an arched amphitheatre facade, and small figures walking in the street, giving a designer a clear model for architectural vignettes with tiny scaled people.
