Start the day with a modern etching; end the day with an 18th Century etching by an Italian master. Giovanni Battista Piranesi 1770 Copper Plate Etching Haven't measured it, but ~28" x 18". Veduta degli Avanzi del Foro di Nerva (View of the remains of the Forum of Nerva), from Vedute di Roma (Views of Rome). So a guy goes into an antique mall and asks do you have any Hot Wheels ? Or 18th century etchings? This booth had both. I chose the etching in the nice oak frame. A sweet piece!
