Description

This 1978 etching by R. Zacharias offers a richly detailed view of St. Peter’s Basilica in Rome, complete with its grand façade, sweeping colonnade, central obelisk, and horse‑drawn carriages that bring historical life to the piazza. Zacharias’s linework captures both architectural precision and the movement of the scene, making this a standout example of his European cityscape work. The piece is housed in a glass‑front frame.

The print is hand‑titled “Basilica di S. Pietro – Roma” along the lower margin, signed “R. Zacharias 1978”, and numbered "117/200". These inscriptions confirm its status as an artist‑signed, limited‑edition etching.

  • Condition: The artwork itself is clean and well‑preserved with strong detail. The mat shows minor rippling from age or humidity. The wooden frame shows scattered reddish discoloration or finish wear along the edges and the back of the frame has some visible staining and wear. None of these issues affect the print itself. Please review the photos for close‑ups of the image, inscriptions, mat, and frame back.
  • Dimensions: 12.75" H x 16.75" W 

A compelling addition for collectors of architectural etchings, Roman cityscapes, or mid‑20th‑century European printmakers.
