Perugian historical print or engraving in Perugia

It is a print or engraving on paper depicting urban views, civic and religious architecture, institutional symbols, or scenes of city life. The line is precise, often monochromatic, designed to endure and to be read in detail. The paper is durable and suitable for long-term preservation. It originated as a visual document, even before becoming a decorative object.

The historical print tells the story of Perugia as a city of knowledge and representation. It symbolizes an urban culture that entrusted the construction of its memory to paper. It speaks of the university, administration, and civic life observed and recorded. In these images lives the Perugian idea that the city also exists through what it chooses to fix in time.
