For Sale/Offers
After declining to purchase a set of large scale overhead views of ancient
(?) Rome, an elderly gentleman here in L. A. has asked me to try to sell
this set for him. I said I would only make this one announcement, in
addition to referring him to a couple of local book/print dealers. If
interested, please let me know and I'll simply connect the two of you; I
want nothing from anyone in this matter. This person acquired this item in
Rome about 40 years ago. I don't know it nor do I have any interest in it.
As far as I can tell the sheets are authentic; eg., not modern
reprorductions.
Thirty (about) copperplate engravings; elephant folio sized; fine shape.
Title on the title (apparently) sheet is:
Silvio Valenti / Tit. S. Callix. Presb. S. R. e. Card. Camerario/ Benedicti
VIV>P>M / Administro / Urbis / Ichnographiam / A Leonardo Bafalino /
Ligneis Formis Evulgatam Servata Proportione Contractam / Atg. Æriincisam /
Jo: Baptanoui / Geometra, & Architect. Novocam. / D^D ^D
Imprint on this (or another - can't recall) sheet is, Romae ? 1748.
