Plan des Thermes de Tite, from Les Plus Beaux Monuments de Rome Ancienne ou Recueil des plus beaux Morceaux de l'Antiquité Romaine qui existent encore

1761
Not on view
Unnumbered plate with Plan of the Baths of Titus, depicted on a fragmented "stone" surface. The image appears below plate 38, "Restes des Thermes de Tite." This is one of only a few examples in the volume where the two half-page images on a single sheet both relate to the same Roman building (the majority of unnumbered bottom images depict ancient sculpture and bas-reliefs). These two images appear facing page 68, a page of text describing this thermae.
