THE OLDEST KNOWN IMAGE OF THE ALBERGO DEI POVERI. Drawing by Sebastiano Monchi (1630-1706), engraving by Jean Fayneau. Title: " Drawing of the new Albergo dei Poveri in Genoa begun in 1654 ". The view probably dates back to before 1676-1677, before the redesign of the western side. The drawing shows the complex as it would have appeared if the building had been completed. Extremely rare.
