1569 1ed Illustrated MEDICI ROME Urbis Romae Cavalieri Dosio Colosseum Pantheon
In mid-16th-century Italy, architects and engravers took a great interest in the Ancient Roman ruins found throughout Rome. Two such figures were Giovanni Cavalieri and Giovanni Dosio. Cavalieri, a well-known engraver, began engraving the Dosio's illustrations of the most iconic Roman locations. These engravings were published in 1569 under the title 'Urbis Romae' and were immensely popular – curiously, another edition was never published!
Notable illustrations found in this work include views of:
· Roman forum
· Arch of Constantine
· The Colosseum
· The Pantheon
· Pyramid of Cestia
· Catacombs of St Sebastian
· Temple of Vesta / Temple of Hercules Victor
· St. Bartholomew on the Island
· Marcellus Theater
· Egyptian and Roman Obelisks
· Baths of Caracalla ruins

Saint Venerable Bede was an English monk during the 7th- and 8th-centuries. He is most remembered for his ecclesiastical work on the history of English people, in which he discusses the establishment and growth of the church throughout the known world. He also wrote important commentaries on the books of the Bible. This work explains relevant Biblical passages, as well as describes the allegorical notes of Church Fathers. However, he did not write exclusively of church theology. He also wrote on the development of time and ideas of cosmology.
This 16th-century Latin edition was published in Paris by Roigny. An impressive, three-volume folio set!
