François Halma (1653–1722) was a notable French printer, publisher, and engraver, known for his contributions to the art of printing during the late 17th and early 18th centuries. He was particularly celebrated for his meticulous engravings, which often depicted historical and geographical subjects with great attention to detail.

"The Roman Forum, Strata Viarum Urbis in Parte Regionis VIII. Sive Fori Romani" translates to "The Roman Forum, Streets of the City in Part of the Region VIII or the Roman Forum" in English.This engraving was created by Halma in 1698, depicting the streets and layout of the Roman Forum in Rome.

The Roman Forum was the center of ancient Rome, serving as a hub for commercial, religious, and political activities. Halma's depiction of the Roman Forum likely provided an intricate visual representation of the architecture, streets, and significant features of this iconic historical site. His work would have been valuable for its portrayal of the ancient urban landscape and its contribution to the documentation of the historical and cultural significance of the Roman Forum during the late 17th century.
