EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the breathtaking view of the Theatre of Marcellus, a true marvel from ancient Rome. Taken from Giovanni Battista Piranesi's renowned Views of Rome series in approximately 1760, this etching showcases the grandeur and architectural brilliance of this historic landmark. The image beautifully incorporates the Palazzo Orsini, adding an extra layer of elegance to the scene. In the distance, one can catch a glimpse of Santa Maria in Campitelli, enhancing the overall charm and serenity of this picturesque setting. Piranesi's attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this print. The intricate dome atop the theatre stands tall against a clear blue sky, while Roman architecture surrounds it with grace and splendor. The street scene below adds life to the composition as people go about their daily activities amidst such extraordinary surroundings. As you gaze at this remarkable piece, you are transported back in time to experience ancient Rome at its finest. The Theatre of Marcellus serves as a testament to human ingenuity and artistic prowess that has stood strong for centuries. This print is not only a visual delight but also an opportunity to appreciate history and culture through art. It belongs to a private collection but is available for all enthusiasts who wish to bring home a piece of Italy's rich heritage captured by Piranesi's masterful hand.
