A transcendent and rare historical view of Rome with Castel Sant'Angelo prominent, painted by Gaspare Vanvitelli. Rome is shown in the distance, with the Tiber seeming to flow towards the observer. The details are soft, and the river is crossed by the bridge with its three Romanesque-style arches. On the left bank of the river are human figures with moored boats. Other smaller, barely perceptible boats lie near the bridge. In the centre, the dome of St Peter's and the Roman palaces can be seen.
Note the change in the tone of the sky, seen at sunset with shades of light blue and blue on the right-hand side, while on the left the colours are paler.
This picture too is part of the prolific output Vanvitelli produced during his stays in Rome.
