Красота Дома несказанна; Доброта его беспредельна.

Joseph Michael Gandy--a visionary architect and ruin-obsessed Romantic, who's sometimes referred to as the "English Piranesi". Was a slightly unfortunate soul... unrecognised in his time, dying in an asylum in Devon, with no record of his grave site.

Some familiar looking Bloodborne concept art side-by-side with one of Gustave Doré's London riverside streets + Piranesi's Imaginary Prisons. All feels very narrow and oppressive - the streets leaning in on you - as well lofty, various things dangling down & the sky blocked out.

en el año 608, se levantó en el Foro la columna de Focas. El pedestal era de época de Diocleciano y en época de Piranesi no era visible. En la cima, había una estatua del emperador, derribada tras su muerte.

In 1741 the column base was raised on a plinth in Piazza Montecitorio, where the artist Piranesi engraved it soon after. The surviving section of granite column shaft was kept behind the Montecitorio Palace where it was sadly damaged by fire in 1759.

A study of Piranesi's etching of the Pantheon from 1751. I kept it loose around most details and tried to somewhat capture the etching nature of the original. It’s really just a study of the greatness of the original rather than any big creative input of my own.
