Members of the Galli Bibiena family were equally distinguished as designers and organizers of festivals, as stage designers and inventors, as draughtsmen of extraordinary scenographic fantasies, as painters and theatre architects.

The present engraving is from a book entitled Architetture e Prospettive, published in Augsburg in 1740.
