A beautiful early 20th century oil on canvas depicting Piazza Campitelli, formerly Piazza Capizucchi, one of the most important squares in Rome. The composition centers on the piazza's fountain, with ochre palazzi and a church tower rising around it and figures crossing the square beneath the warm, enveloping light of a sunset sky. The painter's rich palette gives the stone and stucco of the old city a glowing, atmospheric presence. The canvas is enclosed in a gilded frame from the early 19th century, itself an object of quality with a beaded inner edge. Roman views remain perennial favorites with collectors and designers, at home in a study, hallway, or above a commode. Condition is good, with wear consistent with age.
