S. Lorenza Fuori le Mura, also known as San Lorenzo fuori le Mura, is an etching by the renowned Italian artist Giovanni Battista Piranesi.

His works are celebrated for their intricate detail, dramatic compositions, and the ability to evoke the grandeur and decay of classical antiquity.

San Lorenzo fuori le Mura, or Saint Lawrence outside the Walls, is one of the seven pilgrimage churches of Rome and holds significant historical and religious importance. The basilica is dedicated to Saint Lawrence, one of the first seven deacons of Rome who was martyred in 258 AD. The church is located outside the ancient walls of Rome, hence the name "fuori le Mura," which translates to "outside the walls."

His work is characterized by meticulous attention to architectural details, from the imposing façade to the intricate interior elements.

The etching is part of Piranesi's larger body of work that documents and interprets the architectural heritage of Rome. His engravings are not merely reproductions but are imbued with a sense of drama and scale that reflects his deep appreciation for the ancient world. Piranesi's works, including S. Lorenza Fuori le Mura, have been influential in the fields of archaeology, art history, and architecture, providing valuable insights into the classical past and inspiring generations of artists and scholars.
