Scope and Content Note<br />

Le case ed i monumenti di Pompei was an exhaustive work meant to be a complete<br />

catalog of remains from Pompeii, from topography to plans of individual buildings to<br />

paintings and mosaics. The project was initiated by Antonio Niccolini (1772-1850) and<br />

carried out by his sons Fausto and Felice and his grandson Antonio. The work was issued<br />

in over 100 fascicles in the period from 1854 to 1896. <strong>Vander</strong> <strong>Poel</strong> was in the initial<br />

phases of this project. He had begun collecting images, but had not yet added analysis.<br />

Series V.H. Piranesi prints of Pompeii, 1804-1989, undated<br />

Physical Description: 1.2 linear feet<br />

Scope and Content Note<br />

Giovanni Battista Piranesi visited Pompeii on five occasions between 1770 and 1778. The<br />

various volumes of prints executed from drawings by him and his sons provide some of<br />

the earliest known views of areas of the site. They remain important today because they<br />

include features of the site that have long since disappeared. <strong>Vander</strong> <strong>Poel</strong> collected<br />

Piranesi images of Pompeii and intended to identify the exact locations of the scenes<br />

depicted.<br />
