University of Chicago: Speculum Romanae Magnificentiae

Curated by ACT

Printed images of the major architectural monuments and sculptures of ancient Rome spread knowledge of classical antiquity throughout Europe. The "Speculum Romanae Magnificentiae" (the "Mirror of Roman Magnificence") represents a comprehensive collection of sixteenth-century prints that helped fuel the cultural event we call the Renaissance. Includes mini-exhibitions, or itineraries, of works linked by themes and accompanied by useful essays that aid understanding and appreciation.
