The "Arch of Titus" is one of the etchings created by Giovanni Battista Piranesi, an Italian artist renowned for his etchings of Rome and his "carceri" (prisons) series. Born in 1720 in the Veneto region of Italy, Piranesi moved to Rome in 1740, where he became famous for his detailed and imaginative prints of the city's ancient ruins. The "Arch of Titus" etching is part of his "Vedute di Roma" (Views of Rome) series, which comprises a comprehensive survey of the ancient and modern ruins of Rome, reflecting Piranesi's interest in Roman architecture and antiquity.

The Arch of Titus itself is a 1st-century AD honorific arch located on the Via Sacra, Rome, just to the south-east of the Roman Forum. It was constructed in c. 81 AD by the Emperor Domitian shortly after the death of his older brother Titus to commemorate Titus's victories, including the Siege of Jerusalem in 70 AD.

In Piranesi's etching, the arch is depicted with a dramatic play of light and shadow, showcasing the intricate reliefs and grandeur of the Roman architecture. Piranesi's work is characterized by its attention to detail and its romanticized view of Rome's past glory. His etchings were not only works of art but also served as important records of archaeological and architectural history, influencing both contemporaries and future generations in their perception of Roman grandeur.

Piranesi's "Arch of Titus" is an exemplary piece that demonstrates his mastery of etching and his contribution to the documentation and revival of interest in classical architecture. It remains an important work for scholars of art history, archaeology, and the history of Rome, as well as for enthusiasts of printmaking and the Grand Tour, the traditional trip of Europe undertaken by mainly upper-class European young men of means.
