Castel Gandalfo

Ludwig Richter

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a landscape with an elevated viewpoint. The horizon is high with clouds above and a castle-like structure in the distance, likely Castel Gandolfo. Figures, including a woman and a child, along with animals, are near a small spring with a cloth and cross. A large tree stands in the center. The artwork's color palette is limited to black, white, and gray, typical of etchings. Vegetation and hills are visible in the background, creating a serene countryside setting.
