Catalogue Note
Carlo Labruzzi (1765-1817) et Sir Richard Colt Hoare, à qui l'ouvrage est dédié, parcoururent la Voie Appia juqu'à Benevento en 1789. Labruzzi en rapporta de nombreux dessins dessins. Ceux qui subsistent sont actuellement conservés à l'Accademia Nazionale di San Luca, et ceux offerts à Sir Richard sont aujourd'hui à la British School de Rome.
« Il Labruzzi stesso inizio la pubblicazione dei suoi disegni, incidendoli di sua mano. Ne pubblico 24 del tratto della Via Appia più vicino à Roma, divisi in due serie di dodici. Il desiderio di pubblicarli tutti risulta del titolo : Via Appia illustrata ab Urbe Roma ad Capuam ; a causa della sua morte prematura il progetto non ebbe seguito. » (G. Lugli).
