About the piece

Painted in 1611 by Willem van Nieulandt II, this expansive oil on panel captures the Campo Vaccino in Rome. The composition masterfully balances the imposing ruins of antiquity with the bustling daily life of contemporary figures and livestock, all unified by a striking diagonal light beam breaking through the clouds.
