Catalogue Note
L’opera, qui in PRIMA EDIZIONE, costituisce il lavoro corografico di maggiore importanza del tedesco erudito Kircher: si tratta di un’interessante opera sulle impressioni e descrizioni topografiche dell’autore sul Lazio e le zone adiacenti. L’antiporta figurata e il ritratto del pontefice sono stati incisi su rame da Romeyn De Hooghe. "Opera dottissima arricchita di grandi tavole, e bene delineate col ritratto di Clemente X in principio e il frontespizio fig. da R. de Hooge" (Cicognara).
