A lively and authentic painting by Gaspare Vanvitelli, showing Florence painted "from afar". The Cathedral and its bell tower rise among the Tuscan hills. Closer by, on the left, stand several tall maritime pines at the edge of a busy road, with wayfarers depicted at their feet. The picture is lit from the east, with a beautiful clear sky crossed by the odd cloud above the scene. The detail of the Arno with a small island in the middle of the river is particularly fine.
This picture belongs to the body of work Vanvitelli produced during his stays in Tuscany. The painting is part of Palazzo Pitti, Florence.
