About the piece
Painted in 1859, this evocative oil study by Jean-Baptiste Carpeaux captures the timeless essence of Rome. Best known for his mastery as a sculptor, Carpeaux here demonstrates a sensitive handling of light, depicting the buildings along the Tiber bathed in a soft atmospheric glow that contrasts beautifully with the deep, moody shadows of the water.
