Description: Description: An original early 19th c engraving by Luigi Rossini (1790-1857), a Roman artist and printer who specialized in view (veduta) of Rome for the Grand Tour trade. This engraving, titled "Veduta della rovina del fran Arco trionfale della nave traversa ove è la Confessione di S. Paolo fuori le mura." is a bit of contemporary reportage, depicting the aftermath of the fire which destroyed the Basilica of St Paul's Outside the Walls on 15 July 1823. The Basilica was -until that point- the best-preserved and most original of the Constantinian basilicas. Size: Sheet is 26.5" X 21.75" (roughly); image is 22.5" X 19". Mark: Signed in lower left "Rossini dis e inc" dated "Roma 1823" in lower right Condition: Some foxing to top border, overall toning to image from glue applied to back in prior framing. Damage along edges of sheet from a careless removal when it was reframed sometime in the past. Shipping weight is 4.0 lbs.
