OverviewThe blacksmith's trade is a great artisan tradition. The volume illustrates the Roman gates (150) of the 18th and 19th centuries by the monumental systems of closure and protection of the porticos of the urban basilicas (Santa Maria Maggio, San Giovanni in Laterano or Santa Croce in Gerusalemme) and those placed behind the facades of the churches or in the great city parks. The graphic part of the volume is very important and collects general and detailed drawings of Roman gates. The origins, the developments, the relationships with other countries, the technical and productive innovations are highlighted, up to those linked to the emerging industry of iron, steel and cast iron (between the second half of the 19th century and the first half of the 20th century, when the production of the Roman 'ferrari' changed radically).
