The image is an intricately detailed etching by Giovanni Battista Piranesi, known for his architectural illustrations of Roman antiquities. It depicts the ruins of an ancient Roman structure, presumably a segment of porticoes with vaulted ceilings that once supported a grand spectator area, possibly a circus or a similar large public venue. The remnants of the structure showcase large, heavy stone pillars and arches, much of which is overgrown with vegetation, illustrating its dilapidation over time. The scene is animated with a few small human figures, who provide a sense of scale to the immense ruins and add a narrative element of exploration. Clouds and rugged terrain surround the ruins, enhancing the sense of awe and historical reverence. The inscription below the image is in Latin, providing a context or title, likely referring to the ruins as part of the architectural works attributed to the era of Emperor Alexander Severus. The meticulous detailing and shading techniques of the etching emphasize the textures and depth of the ancient stonework.

This is an image of an etching or engraving depicting an ancient ruin with arched supports. The scene is rendered with careful attention to light and shadow, creating a sense of depth and texture. There are multiple arches, some of which are crumbling, indicating the old and potentially fragile state of the structure. Vegetation overgrows parts of the ruins, suggesting they've been in this state for quite some time. In the foreground, on the left side, we can see what appear to be a few human figures. This inclusion of people gives scale to the image and suggests the ruins might be a site of interest or exploration for them. The sky is filled with clouds, conveying a dramatic and possibly a serene atmospheric condition. There is Latin text at the bottom of the image and a label "Tab. XXXVII" in the top right corner, which indicates this is likely a plate from a larger collection of illustrations, possibly documenting archaeological sites or historic ruins. The text is likely descriptive of the site or the scene, but without a clearer view or translation, it's difficult to provide further information about its content.
