"Views of Rome" (Italian: "Vedute di Roma") is a series of large-scale etchings by the Italian artist Giovanni Battista Piranesi (1720–1778), one of the foremost figures in the development of the architectural fantasy known as capriccio. Celebrated for his technical prowess and imaginative reconstructions of ancient Rome, Piranesi's engravings are a fusion of meticulous archaeological study and dramatic artistic vision. Created over the course of his career, the "Views of Rome" series began in the 1740s and continued until his death, comprising over 130 individual works.

The engravings depict Rome's architectural marvels, from well-preserved ancient structures to the ruins that stirred the Romantic imagination of the 18th century. Piranesi's works were not only artistic expressions but also served as a form of documentation and promotion of Roman grandeur. They played a significant role in shaping the perceptions of the city for Grand Tour travelers, who sought both the educational experience and the souvenir provided by such prints.

Piranesi's "Views of Rome" are characterized by their exceptional attention to detail, high contrast, and dramatic use of light and shadow, which imbue the scenes with a sense of awe and sublime beauty. The engravings often include human figures, which serve as scale references and also add a narrative element, suggesting the daily life and bustling activity of the city amidst its monumental architecture.

The series was not only a commercial success but also an artistic endeavor that influenced generations of architects, artists, and historians. Piranesi's vision of Rome has been both celebrated for its accuracy and criticized for its occasional embellishments, but it remains a seminal work in the history of both printmaking and the depiction of urban landscapes. Today, the "Views of Rome" engravings are held in high esteem by collectors and museums around the world and continue to be studied for their artistic merit and historical significance.
