Fountains of Rome

Copper etchings designed and engraved by Gio. Francesco Venturini from:

"Le Fontane Ne' Palazzi e Ne' Giardini di Roma,
con li Loro Prospetti et Ornamenti".

by Giovanni Battista Falda, 1691

Some of the Prnts are from a later edition.

Looking at these pages of elegant fountains gives us the feeling of an enviable life-style in and around Rome. There is no other place on earth where the opulence of garden architecture becomes more apparent. A deep longing for Mediterranean class and beauty fills our hearts and makes us wish to be there. For those of us who are - unhappily - not citizens of the eternal city this glimpse provides some consolation. At least we may surround ourselves with these prints by using them for decoration of our homes, a veritable joy!

Original antique print 

Some insignificant foxing along edges. Lower marginhas three worm holes away from image.
