Eighteen Views of Rome: The Quattro Fontane Looking Toward Monte Cavallo

Lievin Cruyl

Cleveland Museum of Art

Sepia-toned, old, detailed drawing of a city scene. The scene shows a large square with buildings on three sides. The square has a large building in the center with a fountain on the side facing the viewer. There are people scattered around the square, and a horse-drawn carriage on the right. The buildings are mostly multi-story with flat roofs and numerous windows. The streets have low curbs with no visible pavement. The view in the distance shows more buildings and a hill. The drawing has a key or list of locations along the bottom. The paper appears old with darker spots and frayed edges. The drawing is titled and by an artist at the top. The overall view looks down on the buildings from above.
