Catalogue Note
PRIMA EDIZIONE di uno dei lavori più conosciuti dell’archeologo e antiquario urbinate Raffaele Fabretti. L’autore si occupa della colonna Traiana e nello specifico tratta, grazie al rinnovato uso degli studi archeografici, dei significati degli intagli presenti sulla colonna partendo dalle riflessioni di Alfonso Chacon. Seguono altri studi, in particolare sul bassorilievo "Tavola Iliaca" e su un’opera idraulica effettuata per dare scolo al lago del Fucino.
