View of Rome with the Dome of Saint Peter's and the Castel Sant' Angelo

Giuseppe Zocchi

National Gallery of Art

The image displays a cityscape view with classical architecture. The scene includes a street, buildings, Castel Sant'Angelo, a bridge over a river, and a basilica dome in the distance. The low horizon shows rooftops and structures fading into the background. The style uses pen and ink with a light wash, creating a sepia-toned look. The color palette consists of earthy browns and soft grays. The sky is left mostly blank, adding to the sense of openness.
