Not on view

Unnumbered plate with capriccio of inscriptions from funerary plaques, with groups of figures among the oversized monuments. This image appears below plate 14, Plan of the Columbarium of Livia, which was discovered on the Via Appia in 1726 and is now destroyed. These two images appear across from page 16, which contains a portion of the chapter describing the Columbarium of Livia. Based on inscriptions included in this text, it appears that the plaques shown in the capriccio are based on those found in the Columbarium of Livia.
