About the piece

Painted in 1768, this masterpiece by Bernardo Bellotto captures the architectural splendor of the Roman Capitol. The composition leads the eye up the grand Cordonata and Aracoeli stairs toward the Palazzo Senatorio, documenting the bustling life of the Eternal City with meticulous detail and luminous light.
