“Restoration” of Trajan’s Forum by R. I. Kuzmin in 1839
The article is devoted to the “restoration” projects of the ancient buildings of Rome by pensioners of the Imperial Academy of Arts in the first half of the 19th century. The subject is looked at on the example of the Trajan’s Forum “restoration” project, made in 1839 by R. I. Kuzmin. His work is based on his personal study of the excavation site and various historical sources and academic literature. The inscriptions discovered during the study of the drawings, disguised by Kuzmin as Latin, add curious touches to his life of a pensioner in Rome.
Keywords:
