A splendid historical view of Naples and the Darsena, painted by Gaspare Vanvitelli. A particular feature of this painting is the rendering of the shadows, with dark colours contrasting with the vivid light blue of the sky crossed by a few clouds. The painting was made during his stay in Naples. Prominent is the river flowing downwards, with humble houses along its banks. Above are buildings brightly lit by the sun and a fine clear blue sky with a few clouds on the horizon. The dominant colours are brown and light blue.
The painting is part of a private collection.
