View of the Acqua Acetosa (recto)

Claude Lorrain

Cleveland Museum of Art

Sepia-toned landscape drawing of a serene scene. In the foreground, there are several trees with thick trunks and bushy tops, positioned on the right side. In front of and between the trees are smaller bushes. The trees stand on a slight incline, sloping down to a body of water that stretches across the middle of the image. The water reflects the surrounding landscape. On the left side of the image, there are more trees, bushes, and a rocky hillside with what appears to be a small structure or ruins near the top. The background features distant hills and mountains under a cloudy sky. A small cluster of what appear to be cattle is located in the bottom-left corner.
