Splendid painting, watercolor on paper depicting Piazza del Plebiscito in Naples, the colonnade of the church of San Francesco di Paola with numerous characters captured in everyday life activities.
Watercolor is the most difficult to execute; the overlapping glazes give the preparatory drawing, usually done in pencil, pictorial depth for the representation of volumes, shadows and light.
The details, despite the difficulty of execution, are magnificently executed.
The contemporary frame is veneered in walnut.
Good state of conservation, no damp marks.
Measurements: cm. 62 x 54.
Period: Neoclassical
