A historical and decaying view of the River Tiber by Gaspare Vanvitelli, with strong chiaroscuro. The painting highlights the life and activities of Roman citizens along the riverbank, some of them fishing, while St Peter's can be glimpsed in the background on the right. Along the course of the river are some cargo boats and small human figures. Note the change of tone in the sky, seen at sunset, with intense blue and light blue fading to white, also present in the water of the river.
The painting is part of a private collection.
