English: Drawing and graphic reconstruction of the Constantinian basilica over the grave of St. Peter in Rome. The figure shows, according to the caption, the building in 1450. In the right background, however, the Sistine Chapel can be seen, whose construction started in 1475 and finished in 1483. Since the foundation stone was laid for the new St. Peter's Cathedral in 1506, the drawing shows the state between 1483 and 1506. Drawing from H.W.Brewer, 1891
Deutsch: Zeichnung bzw. zeichnerische Rekonstruktion der konstantinischen Basilika über dem Grab des heiligen Petrus. Die Darstellung zeigt laut Bildtext die Bausubstanz um 1450. Im Hintergrund rechts ist allerdings die Sixtinische Kapelle zu erkennen, mit deren Bau erst 1475 begonnen und die 1483 vollendet wurde. Da die Grundsteinlegung für den neuen Petersdom 1506 erfolgte, zeigt die Zeichnung also den Zustand zwischen 1483 und 1506. Zeichnung von H.W.Brewer, 1891
