Detail of a painting by Jakob Philipp Hackert depicting the fortifications of the port of Reggio Calabria in the 18th century. In the foreground is the guard, in period military uniform, taking up his post in front of the sentry box, while two cannons stand ready to defend the harbour. The sea is calm, the day is fine, and a sailing ship and other boats can be glimpsed in the background. Further off in the background are some mountains.
The painting is on display at the National Museum of San Martino & Certosa, Naples.
