About this work

This black and white etching by Giovanni Battista Piranesi shows an imagined Roman avenue lined with obelisks, columns, and monumental tombs. Sculpted urns, a reclining statue, and inscribed sarcophagi fill the foreground, while figures walk along the paved road toward distant pyramids and towering structures under a dramatic cloudy sky.
