- Kunstforeningen, “Udstillingen af C. W. Eckersbergs Malerier”, 1895 cat. no. 82.
- Statens Museum for Kunst, “Eckersberg - En smuk løgn" ((The National Gallery of Denmark, “Eckersberg – A Beautiful Lie”), 2016, no. 29 reproduced p. 160 and 204. Here entitled "Muren omkring Augustus' Forum med Mars Ultor-templet og kirken Basilios campanile i Rom”. (The wall around Augustus' Forum with the Mars Ultor Temple and the Campanile of the Church of Basilio in Rome.) The text for no. 29 in the exhibition catalogue above mentions on p. 204 that the painting is probably painted before Eckersberg began to paint outdoors. He worked with light and shadow in this painting, where a clear contrast can be seen between the shady foreground and the glimpse of sun that falls through the wall's opening.

- Knud Voss,“Guldalderens malerkunst. Dansk arkitekturmaleri 1800–1850”, 1968, p. 136 and reproduced fig. 34 p. 139. Knud Voss mentions that Constantin Hansen deals with the same location. Presumably, he has learned of the place through Eckersberg. Hansen focuses on the ruins of the pillars with the Corinthian capitals, whereas Eckersberg accentuates the large wall that almost hides the pillars.

Here the author mentions that Piranesi had painted the same site before Eckersberg, however, Piranesi did so from a different point of view, and the framing of the subject was also different. A contemporary of Eckersberg, the French painter Francois Marius Granet (1775–1849), also found the place interesting and made a drawing of the motif.
