Additional Details: This poster presents a one-half scale reduction of Giambattista Nolli’s celebrated Pianta Grande di Roma (Great Plan of Rome), originally engraved in 1748 after years of surveying that began in 1736. Nolli’s work is regarded as one of the most accurate and influential maps of Rome ever produced, offering an aerial perspective that meticulously details streets, piazzas, churches, and public spaces. The map was revolutionary for its time, both technically and conceptually, as it carefully distinguished between public and private space, making it an invaluable tool for urban planning and art historical study. The poster edition preserves the precision and artistry of Nolli’s copperplate engraving, allowing viewers to appreciate both the cartographic achievement and the aesthetic qualities of this masterpiece.
