One of the loose prints by Giovanni Battista Piranesi originally belonged to Thomas Ashby (1874-1931), Director British School at Rome (1906-1925), who inherited his father’s library and continued to enrich the collection throughout his life. The collection was purchased from his widow in 1931 for the BSR Library thanks to a generous donation from the Treasurer at the time, William Russell.
