OPERUM ANTIQUORUM ROMANUM
Small book of Roman Ruins.
One from a series of 20 etchings with engravings published by Hieronymus Cock. and dated 1562 on the title plate.
View of Roman ruins with Trajan's market,
a road with a muleteer in foreground; perhaps after Hieronymus Cock. 1562
Etching and engraving
Riggs 1977 128
After the Praecipua aliquot Romanae antiquitatis ruinarum monimenta, vivis prospectibus, ad veri imitationem affabre designata published in 1551 there was an aditional series of 12 prints, one of them dated 1561 and a series on smaller scale with 20 prints dating from 1562.
The repesentation of the human figures is in my eyes typical for Doeticum and noticable also in his landscape prints after Hans Bol.
The series showed mostly Roman Ruins but also some elswhere in Europe, like the theatre of Bordeaux.
Good impression on watermarked paper with collection mark.
