 [Jigsaw Puzzle from Ricordi Arte entitled Roma Antica by Giovanni Paolo Pannini]
Roma Antica
by Giovanni Paolo Pannini
2000-pc jigsaw puzzle for US$ 42.00

This popular image was available for years from Educa Borras in the 1500-pc size. That product is now discontinued, though we may still have some left on the shelf. This new product in 2000-pc size from RicordiArte shall be its replacement.

The painting "Roma Antica", which is in the collection of the Louvre in Paris, was painted in 1758 and represents an "imaginary museum", constituted by th principal remains of ancient Rome. Wonderfully descriptive, the painting enables us to discover the most famous and historic monuments of Rome, such as the Coliseum, the Pantheon and Trajan's Column. In the painting there is also space for the most representative authorities and other important ruins from antiquity. The architectural monuments are evoked in the form of a gallery of pictures, a kind of repertory of the works produced by Pannini, the indefatigable "viewmaker" of Rome. Fascinating for its combinations of perspective and its accumulative nature, the painting symbolises the archaeological fever which seized Europe in the mid-eighteenth century, after the discovery of the buried villages of Herculaneum and Pompeii.
