His works are characterized by their dramatic use of light and shadow, intricate detailing, and a profound sense of historical reverence. The etchings in this series, including the view of the Colosseum, are celebrated for their ability to evoke the grandeur of ancient Rome while also highlighting the passage of time and the enduring legacy of its architectural achievements.
