American Academy in Rome
Photograhic Archive of the American Academy in Rome



Moscioni Collection
Romualdo Moscioni was born in Viterbo and came to Rome in 1868 to set up a photographic practice, specializing in archaeology, architecture and art. He published four editions of his catalogue, the last (greatly revised) in 1921.

After his death in 1929, his archive of ca. 30,000 glass plates was divided among the American Academy (donated by Prentice Duell), the Photographic Archive of the Vatican Museums, the Istituto Centrale per il Catalogo e la Documentazione and the Archivio Fotografico Comunale in Rome.
