Tivoli: Temple of Tosse (Piranesi 1760)
This
1760 drawing by Piranesi shows the circular structure of the so-called
Tempio della Tosse ("Temple of the Cough"), believed to be the
vestibule of a Roman villa.
This
is located near the ancient Via Tiburtina (present-day Strada
degli Orti), near the Sanctuary of Hercules Victor, a temple complex
from the 1st century BC, formerly known as the Villa of Maecenas.
