520 2 # $a This collection of plates was put together by its publishers from earlier sources. Most plates (20, 28-30, 36, 39, 43-46, 48-50, 54, 58-61, 63-71) are from the series of engravings by V. Regnart published in Rome by F. Collignon in 1650 without a title (but known as 'Praecipua urbis templa'). Plate 72 is a reprint of a plate published separately by De' Rossi ca. 1660 to mark the completion of S. Maria della Pace in 1659. Shortly after publishing this book, the publisher issued the companion Disegni di vari altari e capelle nelle chiese di Roma.

The plates show elevations, sections and plans of 16th- and 17th-century Roman churches, with captions identifying them and their architects (with occasional misattributions). They include work by Carlo Maderno, G. della Porta, F. da Volterra, the Longhi family, G.B. Soria and others.
