The artwork
An evocative painting recalling Goethe's visit to Rome, as he looks at the Colosseum from afar, made by Jakob Philipp Hackert with the setting sun. Goethe is on a clearing, probably talking to a guide. In the background are mountains and a softly shaded sky. The colours are warm, and the vegetation around Goethe is well painted. Behind the Colosseum some houses and a few Roman palaces can be glimpsed.
The painting is part of a private collection.
