About this work
This painting shows a wide view of an open plaza dominated by a large domed basilica at its center, with a tall obelisk in front and curving colonnades on both sides. Carriages, mounted riders, uniformed soldiers and figures in period dress move across the sandy square, while fountains and scattered stone fragments lie in the foreground. The work is attributed to Gaspar van Wittel, dated 1700, and is held by the Kunsthistorisches Museum.
