About the piece

Painted in 1832 by August Ahlborn, this masterful work depicts the city of Florence from a scenic hillside. A grand, gnarled tree dominates the foreground, acting as a natural frame for the iconic dome of Santa Maria del Fiore and the historic towers of the city. The soft light of the Tuscan sun bathes the valley and distant mountains in a serene, atmospheric glow.
