Large Landscape Oil Painting Of Rome With Castel Sant'Angelo and Tiber River

after 1900

About the Item

The painting is typical genre scene of Rome of the 17th century, a daily life along the Tiber river. with the river Tiber, Castel Sant'Angelo. Fishermen and characters are on the bank of the river, while several boats travel along it. In the background, perfectly portrayed with a clever play of perspective, Castel Sant'Angelo appears in all its splendor. The work refers to the tradition of Roman painters of the 18th century and in particular is inspired by and takes up the style of Giovanni Battista Busiri a famous and important roman painter of vedute and landscape active in Rome in the 18th century. One of his famous and important artwork a watercolor painting view of the Castel Sant' Angelo, sold at Sothebys previously property of the Dukes of Newcastle under Lyne, and was exposed at Clumber Park in Nottinghamshire it is basic and inspiration for the large landscape view oil painting here presented. In fact, comparing the two works we can see many similarities like the boats, the architectures and the characters and above all, the general setting of the work and the observer's point of view are almost identical, presenting us with a cross-section of real and authentic life of Rome in the 17th century.
