Giovanni Battista Piranesi - (1720-1778) Title of this Print: "View of the Rear Facade of the Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore" Title of the Work: A.D LEHMANN: Selected Works of G.B. PIRANESI: ANTIQUITÉ of ROME Print Type/Technique: LITHOGRAPHY Year & Place of Edition: VIENNA, 1888 Total Dimensions: 64 x 48 cm This is the beautiful and rare engraving by Piranesi, reprinted at the end of the 19th century by the author LEHMANN, in his rare work consisting of 4 volumes, which contain a vast repertoire of Piranesi’s prints. This is the 1st Edition completely reprinted in Lithography in VIENNA in 1888, using precisely this new printing technique. The condition is fairly good as shown in the photo: there are small signs of age, especially along the central fold (for double-sheet engravings...); otherwise, this is a rare and valuable engraving from the late 1800s, in excellent preservational condition.
