Description
Monumental engraving showing the Papal Basilica of St. Peter in the Vatican, in its setting, with below a coat of arms with dedication to Cardinal Sigismondo Chigi. Obilisk and two fountains in front, adjacent buildings and carriages and people in foreground.
Engraved and drawn by Gio Batta Falda, an engraver and architect from Rome, who refers to himself at the lower right-hand side of the picture.
He was a well-known architect in his lifetime. His works include many buildings in Rome.
Published by Domenico de' Rossi (1659–1730) was an Italian sculptor and engraver. In 1709 Domenico inherited the printshop of Giovanni Giacomo de' Rossi, by the church of Santa Maria della Pace, the largest and most long-lived publisher of the Roman baroque. Several generations of the de' Rossi participated in the family publishing firm established in the 17th century, which continued to produce engravings for the use of designers.

Color Key
We offer many maps in their original black and white condition. We do not systematically color-up maps to make them more sellable to the general public or buyer.
Copper engraved or wood block maps are always hand colored. Maps were initially colored for aesthetic reasons and to improve readability. Nowadays, it is becoming a challenge to find maps in their original colors and are therefor more valuable.
We use the following color keys in our catalog:
Original colors; mean that the colors have been applied around the time the map was issued.
Original o/l colors; means the map has only the borders colored at the time of publication.
Colored; If the colors are applied recently or at the end of the 20th century.
