Giorgio Sommer (1834 1914) was one of Europe's most important and prolific photographers of the 19th century. He produced many street and architectural scenes of Naples as well as other Italian cities. Sommer was involved in every aspect of the photography business, publishing his own images that he sold in his studios and to customers across Europe. In later years, he photographed custom images for book illustrations, as well as printing his own albums and postcards. This appears to be a leaf from one of the albums.

Two 21x26 cm b&w photos, one on either side of 24x37 cm card. 1) " No. 1015. Capidoglio dalla Piazza Aracoeli (Roma)." 2) "1034. Roma. Arco de Septimus Severus." The card, apparently from a photo album, is extremely chipped and torn but there is little damage to the photos themselves.
