About the piece
Painted around 1725 by Giovanni Battista Busiri, this oil on canvas captures the majestic cascades of Tivoli. The composition masterfully balances the dynamic white water of the falls against the warm, weathered stone of the village perched above, all under a soft, expansive sky. It is a quintessential example of the landscapes favored by European travelers on the Grand Tour.
