About this sheet

Antique print titled 'L'Amphitheatre de Rome'. A vue d'optique of a Roman amphitheatre. This is an optical print, also called 'vue optique' or 'vue d'optique', which were made to be viewed through a Zograscope, or other devices of convex lens and mirrors, all of which produced an optical illusion of depth.

Published by Georg Balthasar Probst, circa 1760.
