engraving in Italian intaglio on the city of Rome and Italy (1824)
engraving intaglio from 1824 representing a place in the city of Rome in Italy. Authentic, well-preserved copy. More precisely, it is a view of the Castel Sant'Angelo (Castle of the Holy Angel) in Rome, known in Italian by the same name. This monument was originally built as a mausoleum for Emperor Hadrian between 134 and 139 AD, before being transformed into a fortress and then papal residence over the centuries. Located near the Vatican and overlooking the Tiber River, this building is famous for its massive cylindrical silhouette and bronze statue of the Archangel Michael at the top. Its function has evolved over the ages, notably playing an essential defensive role during barbarian invasions.
Dimensions: 14 x 20 cm
