EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases a magnificent architectural wonder, known as "S Constanza erroneously called Temple Bacchus". The image transports us to a bygone era, offering a glimpse into the past and inviting us to explore its intricate details. The photograph captures the veduta interna del sepolcro di, fabbricato da costantino magno, ed erroneamente detto il tempio bacco. This impressive structure was mistakenly believed to be the Temple of Bacchus but is actually S Constanza, an ancient mausoleum located in Rome. Its grandeur and historical significance are beautifully portrayed through this etching print created by Giovanni Battista Piranesi. Piranesi's masterful artistry brings out every nuance of this architectural marvel. The play of light and shadow highlights the elaborate carvings on the walls and ceiling while emphasizing its majestic domed interior. One can almost imagine standing within those hallowed halls, surrounded by centuries of history. Originally built during the reign of Constantine the Great in ca 1756, this structure has undergone various transformations throughout time. Today it stands as a church dedicated to Santa Costanza or Saint Constance. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork captured by Piranesi's lens, we are reminded that beauty lies not only in accurate representation but also in our perception and appreciation for historical context. This print serves as a testament to human ingenuity and artistic brilliance while preserving
