About the piece

Painted around 1800 by Simon Denis, this oil study captures the evocative atmosphere of the Roman Campagna. The composition is anchored by two towering stone pines, while the sky takes center stage, filled with billowing clouds and radiant crepuscular rays that illuminate the rolling verdant hills of the Italian countryside.
