The artwork
A historical and original view of the port of Messina with a detail of workers loading goods, made by Jakob Philipp Hackert. The ships are moored at the quay; a distinguished gentleman stands out, watching the loading. The goods are loaded onto ox-drawn carts. The painting seeks to portray the toil of the workers, engaged in the hard work of handling and loading.
The painting is on display at the Royal Palace of Caserta.
