"Sepolcro Di Cecilia Metella" is an etching by the renowned Italian artist Giovanni Battista Piranesi, created in the 18th century. Piranesi, born in 1720 and active until his death in 1778, was a master engraver, architect, and antiquarian, celebrated for his detailed and dramatic depictions of Rome's ancient ruins. His works are characterized by their meticulous attention to architectural detail and their ability to evoke the grandeur and decay of classical antiquity.

The etching "Sepolcro Di Cecilia Metella" depicts the Tomb of Caecilia Metella, a well-preserved Roman mausoleum located on the Via Appia, one of the most important ancient roads leading out of Rome. The tomb was built in the 1st century BCE for Caecilia Metella, the daughter of a prominent Roman consul. Piranesi's rendering of this iconic structure is notable for its precision and the atmospheric quality that he brings to the scene. The etching captures the cylindrical form of the tomb, its massive stone blocks, and the surrounding landscape, which includes other ruins and vegetation that hint at the passage of time.

Piranesi's work is not merely a documentary representation but also an artistic interpretation that emphasizes the monumentality and timelessness of Rome's architectural heritage. His etchings were part of a larger project to document and celebrate the grandeur of ancient Rome, which he believed was a source of inspiration and knowledge for contemporary and future generations. "Sepolcro Di Cecilia Metella" is a testament to Piranesi's skill in combining artistic vision with archaeological accuracy, making it a significant piece in the study of both art history and classical antiquity.
