View of the Tiber Island in Rome, 1755-1779
EDITORS COMMENTS
is an exquisite etching and watercolor painting by the 18th-century German artist Balthasar Friedrich Leizelt. The work showcases a picturesque scene of the Tiber Island in Rome, Italy, as it appeared during the imperial Franciscan Academy period. The Tiber Island, also known as Isola Tiberina, is a small island located in the Tiber River, in the heart of Rome, Lazio, Italy, Europe. In this image, Leizelt masterfully captures the unique character of the island, with its quaint housing and diverse population. The bridge connecting the island to the mainland is a prominent feature, framing the composition and adding a sense of movement and connection to the bustling city beyond. The painting is rich in detail, with intricately rendered buildings, bridges, and structures, as well as the vibrant colors of the Italian skyline. The wooden houses and shacks on the island are a stark contrast to the grandeur of the imperial Franciscan Academy, which can be seen in the background. The men in the foreground, dressed in the clothing of the time, add a sense of scale and life to the scene. This work is a testament to the artistic prowess of Balthasar Friedrich Leizelt and the rich cultural heritage of the imperial Franciscan Academy in Rome. It offers a glimpse into the past, transporting viewers to a time when the Tiber Island was a thriving neighborhood in the heart of the ancient city. The painting is now part of the prestigious collection at the Rijksmuseum in the Netherlands, Europe, and serves as a reminder of the enduring beauty and history of Rome and Italy.
