Description: Campo Marzio is an etching by the Italian artist Giovanni Battista Piranesi. It is part of a series of 13 etchings of the Campus Martius, a large public space in ancient Rome. The etching shows a view of the Campus Martius from the west, with the Tiber River in the background. The foreground is dominated by the Pantheon, a large temple dedicated to all the gods.
