Giovanni Battista Piranesi is undoubtedly best known for his extraordinary and prolific work as a printmaker. His vedute and capricci of an imaginatively re-created Rome, his archaeological reconstructions, and his fantastic Carceri series of prison interiors distinguish him as one of the most significant figures in the history of printmaking. Less familiar are his designs for interiors and furnishings, and the didactic essays that accompany his folios of etchings. A self-fashioned visionary of design reform, Piranesi advocated the creative recombination of Egyptian, ...
