About the piece

Painted in 1824 by Joseph Anton Koch, this heroic landscape captures a panoramic view of a coastal city nestled among dramatic mountains and verdant valleys. A radiant rainbow arches across the sky, symbolizing peace and hope, while shepherds and travelers occupy the foreground of this idealized, timeless scene characteristic of 19th-century European Romanticism.
