FRIENDS WITH AN OLD BOOK

The book “Le fontane di Roma nelle piazze, e luoghi publici della città, con li loro prospetti, come sono al presente” by Giovanni Batista Falda doesn’t have any other reprints or translations before 1800.

Its only translation was published in 2014 by Dover Publications with the title “The fountains of Rome”.

Nevertheless there are some publications with a similar topic.
One of them was published by Giovanni Maggi , a collection of forty-seven plates of fountains in his “Fontane diverse che sivedano nell’alma città di Roma”, in 1618.
All of the similar publications vary in numbering and arrangement of plates. They came up with the tradition of celebrating Rome’s urban topography in the sixteenth century.
