About the Item

Antique print, titled: 'Basis Columnae Rostratae (?)' - This original old antique print shows a rostral column in Rome, Italy. It is a type of victory column, originating in ancient Greece and Rome where they were erected to commemorate a naval military victory. This original old antique print / plate originates from: 'Beschryving van Oud en Nieuw Rome. Verdeelt in drie Deelen. In 't Fransch beschreven door den Heer Francois Desseine. En in 't Nederduitsch vertaalt.', by Francois Desseine and published by Francois Halma in 1704, first published in French in 1690. Copies of this work are rarely complete as the maps and engravings are of high quality matching the work of Piranesi. Artists and Engravers: Made by 'P. Sluiter' after 'Jan Goeree'. Made by P.
