$a The book carries no date of publication, but a manuscript note to Piranesi's Catalogo assigns it to 'Maggio 1764', while Francesco Piranesi's catalogue of his father's works dates it to 1763 (this latter date may be that of the Approvazione). The first plate shows the city wall of Cora (6th century B.C.); the second, ruins of the temple of Castor and Pollux (1st century B.C.); the third, architectural fragments from the city; Plates IV-X, views, elevations, sections and plans of the temple of Hercules (ca. 80 B.C.), one of the few known Roman Doric temples. |
