Abtheilungen Rom's is Gustav Wenngs 1846 portrait of Papal Rome, a scarce Munich engraved plan prepared for Ernst Frsters Handbuch fr Reisende in Italien. In vivid tints and crisp linework, Wenng color codes the rioni, letting the Tibers sinuous course organize the citys narrative from north to south.
