https://jeanclaudegolvin.com/jpg/1330_1994 [D_ANT_LYB_Leptis Magna].jpg600325Aerial view of the old forum at Leptis Magna, early 3rd c. The drawing is in landscape format. It is arranged within a frame drawn in ink. The lower margin is preserved. There are traces of watercolor. Inscriptions appear on the reverse. The forum is built on the axis of the cardo (north-south axis), visible in the lower left-hand corner. It comprises a huge courtyard bordered by a portico and several buildings. On the left are three temples: on the left, the one dedicated to Liber Pater, in the center, the one dedicated to Rome and Augustus, and on the right, the one dedicated to Hercules. The lower left features three buildings: a public building with porticoes, an unknown temple and a temple dedicated to the Mother of the Gods. A market hall, with an open-air market nearby, is located in the lower right-hand corner. It is flanked by the curia.
