About the piece
Painted by Hubert Robert in 1789, this work captures a 'capriccio' view of Tivoli, blending real architectural elements with an imagined, dramatic landscape. The composition features the Temple of Vesta perched high above a wooden bridge and a tumbling waterfall, all illuminated by the soft, atmospheric light characteristic of the French Rococo transition into Neoclassicism.
