This engraving by Giacomo Lauro depicts a reconstructed view of the ancient Theater of Marcus Scaurus (Theatrum Marci Scauri), an opulent structure known from Roman antiquity. Lauro’s detailed architectural rendering presents the theater’s grand multi-tiered colonnade and stage structure, reflecting both historical records and early modern interpretations of classical urban design. The accompanying Latin inscription provides further commentary on the building’s grandeur and historical context.
Giacomo Lauro (c.1550–1645) was an Italian engraver and antiquarian illustrator based in Rome.
