The illustrations of Imperial Rome's monuments, sculptures and coins formed part of a suite of six engravings designed by A. G. Barbazza to illustrate Francesco Bianchini's Demonstratio historiae ecclesiasticae... or The story of the Church divided in four parts and explained with images of holy and unholy monuments referred to in religion, 1752.
