This building is situated not far from the well-known Piazza Navona and was long believed to have been designed by the Renaissance master Raphael. The artist’s role, as the title suggests, accounts for the building’s architecture among Piranesi’s Roman views. The building came into the hands of the Vidoni family after Piranesi made the etching and is now known as the Palazzo Vidoni, and not the Palazzo Stoppani, as the print’s title suggests.
