View of the Ponte Rotto, Rome

Jan Asselyn

Cleveland Museum of Art

Sepia-toned drawing of a bridge and buildings. The bridge has three visible arches with a short staircase on the right side leading up to it. A short wall with a railing runs along the top of the bridge. The bridge is made of stone blocks and appears old and weathered. On the left side of the bridge, there are several buildings with steep roofs and varying heights. One building has a tower. There is a body of water underneath the bridge. The drawing is done in pencil on aged paper. The style is realistic. The scene depicts a riverbank with sparse vegetation.
