‎Rare guide visuel trilingue de Rome et de ses alentours comportant 51 gravures à pleine page figurant les bâtiments et lieux les plus emblématiques de la Ville Éternelle. Dans les médias du XIXe siècle, à une époque où les voyages touristiques de la classe aristocrate pouvaient durer des semaines ou des mois, Rome agissait comme un puissant pôle d'attraction pour de nombreuses personnes dont l'objectif était l'étude de l'Antiquité classique. Le présent guide donnait à ces voyageurs davant la photographie une vaste iconographie, avant-gout de tous les monuments quils pouvaient admirer à Rome. Beaux tirages sur un papier de qualité. 1 vol. 8-vo oblong (190 x 260 mm.) of : [52] ff. including a lithographed title, [1] engraved title and 51 engravings. Publisher's paperback reproducing the title on the first cover (stains, soiling). Rare trilingual visual guide to Rome and its surroundings with 51 full-page engravings depicting the most emblematic buildings and places of the Eternal City. In the media of the nineteenth century, at a time when tourist trips for the aristocratic class could last for weeks or months, Rome acted as a powerful magnet for many people whose goal was the study of classical antiquity. This guidebook gave these pre-photographic travelers a vast iconography, a preview of all the monuments they could admire in Rome. Beautiful prints on quality paper.‎
