A fine and romantic historical view of the River Tiber featuring the Ponte Rotto, painted by Gaspare Vanvitelli. It highlights the life and activities of Roman citizens along the riverbank, while in the background are Roman buildings, albeit not sharply defined. Vanvitelli has used many shades of brown to light up certain scenes. Along the course of the river are a few small boats carrying goods or people.
Note the change of tone in the sky, seen at sunset with mixed shades of light blue and blue on the left.
The painting is on display at the Galleria Civica d'Arte Moderna, Milan
