Légende

The Baths of Caracalla and Three Capitals from the Villa Mattei in Rome, c.1809-c.1812. Knip originally drew his spectacular panorama of the Baths of Caracalla, the largest and most luxurious of ancient Rome’s public baths, on three sheets of paper (now in five fragments). In Knip’s day, much of the complex still lay partially underground. The ruins wereexcavated from 1824, a process that continued long into the 20th century.
