19th plate of Ornamenti di fabriche antichi et moderni dell'alma citta di Roma, published in Rome, as 2nd part in the 2nd edition of the Vestigi dell'antichità di Roma by Etienne Du Pérac, by Andrea and Michelangelo Vaccaro, after 1607, probably after 1614. This edition also includes "Antiquarum Statuarum Urbis Romae Quae in publicis privatisque locis visuntur, Icones" published in 1584 by Lorenzo della Vaccheria. The volume was published after 1607 (or after 1614) as the statue of the Fauno in the "... Icones" is said to form part of the Borghese Collection, but was owned by the Ceoli family until 1607. However, in the 1614 sale catalogue of Andrea and Michelangelo Vaccaro, the 3 series are still separate. The title page has the name of the publisher and the date of the original edition: Ad Istanza di Andrea della Vaccaria All'Insegna della Palma, with the addition of: Parte seconda.
