"View of an Ideal City" or "The City of God 4" is a renowned painting attributed to Luciano Laurana, an Italian architect and artist of the Renaissance period. This piece is often celebrated for its depiction of an idealized urban landscape, reflecting the humanist principles of the time that sought harmony between the built environment and human society. The painting is thought to date from the latter half of the 15th century, a period marked by a resurgence of interest in classical antiquity and the principles of order, symmetry, and proportion in architecture.

The work is characterized by its meticulous representation of a symmetrical city, with a central vanishing point that suggests the application of linear perspective, a technique that was being refined during the Renaissance. The city is laid out with geometric precision, featuring wide, straight boulevards that radiate from central plazas, orderly rows of buildings, and monumental structures that might include temples, palaces, and civic buildings, all indicative of an ideal civic life and urban order.

While the exact location depicted in the painting remains a subject of debate, the work is often interpreted as an embodiment of the philosophical and architectural ideals espoused by figures such as Vitruvius and later by Renaissance thinkers like Leon Battista Alberti. The painting's association with Laurana stems from his reputation as an architect and his involvement in the design of ideal cities, although the attribution has been a matter of scholarly debate.

"View of an Ideal City" or "The City of God 4" is not only a masterpiece of Renaissance art but also a significant cultural artifact that offers insight into the era's intellectual currents and aspirations for the perfect urban environment.
