Cascatella Superiore a Tivoli

Albert Christoph Dies

National Gallery of Art

The image displays a landscape view from a slightly elevated vantage point. The horizon is low, just above a waterfall cascade, offering a view of the sky with scattered clouds. The scene is an intricate engraving showing textures of trees, water, and landforms. There are sheep grazing on grass, tended by a figure, as trees frame the waterfalls. In the background, rolling hills and pastoral buildings are visible. The color scheme is monochrome in shades of black, white, and gray.
