A historical and original 18th-century view of the port of Taranto, made by Jakob Philipp Hackert. In the foreground is the quay, with goods being loaded onto ox-drawn carts. On the right side some oxen are munching hay. Prominent on the left side are townspeople in period dress, painted by Hackert in fine detail. In the background is the bridge with fishermen casting their nets, and at the top right a detail of the keep is shown.
The painting is on display at the Royal Palace of Caserta.
