In its original condition, loose and not trimmed and mounted, this is a particularly good set of this magnificent panorama. Vasi's Prospetto is not only breathtaking in its sheer size and abundance of detail but also of great historical interest. As Amato Pietro Frutaz writes: Con questa splendida veduta panoramica di Roma si pu veramente avere un'idea precisa della cittá nel secolo XVIII. (A. P. Frutaz, Le Piante di Roma I, Rome, 1962, no. CLXXI)
