Neapolitan painter (18th-19th century) - View of the Gulf of Naples with Vesuvius.
21 x 29 cm (unframed) - 35.5 x 43.5 cm (framed).
Tempera on paper, in an ebonized and painted wooden frame.
View of the Gulf of Naples with Vesuvius erupting in the background, the city spread along the coast, and in the foreground, some sailing boats on the sea and figures of common people on a rocky outcrop. The composition reflects the taste of Neapolitan vedutism intended for the Grand Tour market, with an atmospheric rendering dominated by warm sunset tones, from pink to ochre yellow, which envelop the entire scene. The precise brushwork and attention to architectural and landscape details recall the tradition of vedutisti active in Naples between the late eighteenth and early decades of the nineteenth century.
