EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century print depicts a breathtaking view of The Baths of Caracalla in Rome, with the picturesque town of Frascati visible in the distance. The Baths of Caracalla, an ancient Roman public bathing complex, are prominently displayed in the foreground. The view is from the northwest, with the Porta Latina, one of the city gates in the Aurelian Walls, visible in the left background. The hills in the background bear the label 'Frascati,' a town located just southeast of Rome. The intricate details of the Baths' ruins are brought to life through the skillful use of graphite and watercolor. The basilica of Santa Balbina, adjacent to a medieval monastery, adds an interesting contrast to the ancient Roman architecture. The Aurelian Walls, an essential part of Rome's defensive system, can be seen in the background, providing a sense of scale and historical context. Josephus Augustus Knip, a Dutch artist, created this work between 1809 and 1812. His meticulous attention to detail and use of color make this print a valuable addition to any collection of ancient Roman art or European art from the 19th century. The paper on which it is printed bears the mark of the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, a testament to its historical significance and provenance. This print is a visual representation of the rich cultural heritage of ancient Rome and the beauty of the Italian landscape. It invites the viewer to imagine the bustling city that once stood here, the sounds of ancient Rome echoing through the ruins, and the tranquility of the surrounding hills. A true masterpiece that transports us back in time.
