"Longitudinal Section of the Pantheon showing the dome, the portico and the interior of the temple" is an intricate etching by the Italian artist Giovanni Battista Piranesi, first published in 1756. This work is part of Piranesi's renowned series "Vedute di Roma" (Views of Rome), which captures the grandeur and decay of Roman architecture during the 18th century. The etching presents a meticulous cross-section of the Pantheon, one of the best-preserved ancient Roman buildings, renowned for its massive dome and oculus.

Piranesi's depiction is not only an artistic representation but also an architectural study that conveys the Pantheon's complex structural elements. The etching illustrates the harmonious proportions of the portico with its Corinthian columns, the vast rotunda, and the coffered concrete dome, which was the largest in the world at the time of its construction. By providing a longitudinal section, Piranesi allows viewers to understand the spatial dynamics and the engineering prowess behind this architectural marvel.

The work is a testament to Piranesi's dual role as both an artist and an architectural historian. His attention to detail and his ability to convey texture and light contribute to the etching's sense of depth and realism. "Longitudinal Section of the Pantheon" not only serves as a valuable historical record but also exemplifies the neoclassical fascination with antiquity that was prevalent in the 18th century.

Published by E and F.N. Spon Ltd. in 1900, this etching has been widely studied and admired for its technical excellence and its contribution to the documentation of Roman architecture. It remains an important work for scholars, art historians, and enthusiasts of Piranesi's oeuvre, as well as for those interested in the architectural heritage of Rome.
