About the piece

Painted in 1774 by Scottish artist Jacob More, this serene landscape captures the timeless beauty of Rome as seen from the banks of the Tiber. The composition leads the eye from the textured foliage and resting figures in the foreground across the reflective water toward the iconic dome of St. Peter's Basilica, bathed in a gentle, atmospheric light.
