About this work

A sunlit terrace in the foreground overlooks a broad valley of gardens and cultivated fields descending to a blue sea with sailing vessels. Buildings with terracotta roofs sit on the slopes, and distant headlands fade into a pale sky. The artist's signature and the date 1859 appear at the lower left.
