Catalogue Note
This is the first version of a composition which appears in the Van Bloemen catalogue raisonné by Andrea Busiri Vici, (Ugo Bozzi Editore - Rome, 1974), as #230, Passaggio con Monumenti Romani. Busiri Vici comments: "Painted in the more personal impressionistic spirit, this landscape should be assigned to the artist's maturity, around 1740."
