Giambattista Nolli, Imago Urbis, and Rome
June - July 2003 (5 week workshop)

Although Giambattista Nolli's contribution to art, architecture, and urban planning has often been overlooked in favor of his better-known colleagues from the 18th century (such as Piranesi), Nolli's work, in particular his 1748 Pianta Grande, continues to play a key role in the study of Rome and other cities. This five week seminar will focus on Nolli's work, his forebearers, and those he influenced in regards to the urban development of Rome and its architectural representation. This five week summer seminar will be held in conjunction with the three day International Conference on G. B. Nolli to be sponsored by the Studium Urbis Rome May 30-June 2, 2003.
