The Istituto Nazionale per la Grafica (National Institute for the Graphic Design) is an Italian institute having the aim of preserving, protecting and promote a heritage of works providing documentary evidence of all types of graphic design: prints, drawings, photographs. The institute is located in Rome and is managed by the Directorate-General for Contemporary Landscape, Arts and Architecture of the Italian Ministry of Cultural Heritage and Activities.
The institute is housed in the monumental complex of Trevi Fountain, consisting of Palazzo Poli and neighbouring Palazzo della Calcografia, built in 1837 by architect Giuseppe Valadier as headquarters of the Chamber Intaglio, directed by Valadier himself for decades.
