Description
L’incisione originale da cui è tratta la stampa, che reca nelle iscrizioni in alto a sinistra il riferimento a Raffaele Fabretti, dovette far parte del corredo illustrativo del volume “De Aquis et Aquaeductibus veteris Romae” di cui fu autore l’archeologo ed erudito urbinate Fabretti, volume pubblicato per la prima volta a Roma nel 1680 (presso Giovanni Battista Bussotti), poi nel 1788 (presso Natale Barbiellini, sempre a Roma).
Questa tavola è incisa da Jacob vam Vianen su disegno di Jan Goeree, e pubblicata nell'opera Beschryving van oud en nieuw Rome, di François Jacques Deseine edita ad Amsterdam nel 1704 da Franz Halm (Franciscus Halma), in 2 volumi.
Acquaforte, in ottimo stato di conservazione.

François Halma [Franz Halm, Franciscus Halma (1653 - 1722)] was a Dutch publisher active in Utrecht (starting 1674) and later in Amsterdam where he worked as printer and publisher from 1699-1710. He eventually settled at Leeuwarden, where he died. His output was composed of botanical, theological and historical works, but also, he published a small number of geographies and atlases. In 1695, he published an edition of Gerard Mercator's Ptolemy. His re-issue of Schotanus à Sterringa’s Friesche Atlas in 1698 was regarded among his finest work. He also published an edition of Sanson’s Description de l’Univers. He produced an edition of Falda's plan of Rome in or around 1700. He also caused to be engraved a set of large-format maps of the continents and the world (this latter after Cassini) which are quite rare and appear to have been separately issued. We are aware of institutional copies of the continents having been bound into a 1710 Visscher atlas. The execution of these large and rare maps, drawn by Jan Goeree and engraved by Jan Baptiste, was of a very high quality. The plates were later acquired and reprinted, virtually unchanged, by Pieter van der Aa in 1713.
