About the piece
Painted in 1757 by Giovanni Paolo Panini, this masterful capriccio depicts an imaginary gallery overflowing with views of modern Rome's most famous landmarks, including the Trevi Fountain and St. Peter's Basilica. The work features the artist and his patron, the Count de Stainville, amidst a treasure trove of architectural paintings and classical sculptures, perfectly capturing the Grand Tour era's fascination with classical heritage.
