Antique engraving featuring views of the Roman Forum, and two churches in the forum: the Church of Santi Luca e Martina, and Santa Maria Nova (now Santa Francesca Romana).
The view of the Forum, after a drawing by Lievin Cruyl, looks southeast from Capitoline Hill towards the Colosseum. In front of the Temple of Castor and Pollux, cattle are depicted in the Campo Vaccino, the cow field that took over part of the Forum for a few centuries. Behind the Curia lies a row of houses.
The views of the two churches are both after engravings by Giovanni Battista Falda.
