Our painting represents an imaginary view of the Italian countryside in the vicinity of Rome where the painter stayed all his life. The painting is very fine, the trees and the foliage are painted in a delicate way, the composition is typical of the time, a gap in the foliage which draws the eye to a ruin and a luminous sky.
