About the piece
Created in 1814, Washington Allston's 'Italian Landscape' captures the romantic ideal of the Italian countryside. The composition leads the eye from foreground figures at a stone fountain across a reflective lake toward distant mountains and crumbling classical architecture, all bathed in a luminous, hazy light.
