About the piece
Created around 1650 by Jan Both, this masterpiece exemplifies the Dutch Italianate style, capturing the idyllic beauty of the Roman countryside. The scene follows travelers across a stone bridge, while in the foreground, an artist—the 'draughtsman' of the title—sits sketching the sun-drenched mountains and expansive sky.
