Seven Wonders - Rome | Piranesi and Aventino (Episode 6)
Episode 6: Giovanni Battista Piranesi, a great engraver and architectural theorist, achieved great European fame thanks to his famous Vedute di Roma (Views of Rome), influencing his contemporaries with his projects, drawings and treatises. In 1761 he dedicated the treatise On the Magnificence and Architecture of the Romans to the Venetian Rezzonico family. Three years later, Giovanni Rezzonico, who had become Roman Grand Prior of the Order of Malta, commissioned Piranesi with the restoration of the Church of Santa Maria del Priorato, the square, the villa and the adjacent gardens on the Aventine Hill.
Piranesi carried out the works from 1764 to 1766, creating a splendid facade with an extraordinary iconographic apparatus and magnificent stucco decorations for the interior. The church was left to neglect for years, but after recent restoration works the Church has returned to its original splendor. The value of these buildings is inestimable, as they are the only ones ever built by Piranesi, who for the first time transformed the numerous drawings and projects into concrete objects.
