Painting Description
"Rome, A View Of The Campo Vaccino With The Arch Of Septimiusseverus And The Temple Of Saturn" is an evocative landscape painting attributed to the circle of Gaspar van Wittel, also known as Vanvitelli. Gaspar van Wittel (1653-1736) was a Dutch painter who is celebrated for his detailed and panoramic views of Italian cities, particularly Rome. He is often credited with pioneering the genre of veduta, a highly detailed, large-scale painting of a cityscape or some other vista. Van Wittel's works are characterized by their meticulous attention to architectural detail and their ability to capture the vibrancy of urban life.
The painting in question offers a sweeping view of the Campo Vaccino, the area that was once the Roman Forum, a central hub of ancient Rome. The composition prominently features the Arch of Septimius Severus and the Temple of Saturn, two iconic monuments that have stood the test of time and continue to be significant historical landmarks. The Arch of Septimius Severus, constructed in 203 AD, commemorates the victories of Emperor Septimius Severus and his sons. The Temple of Saturn, one of the oldest sacred sites in Rome, dates back to the early Republic and was dedicated to the god Saturn.
In this work, the artist captures the ruins in a state of picturesque decay, a common theme in 17th and 18th-century European art that reflects both a fascination with antiquity and a sense of nostalgia for the grandeur of the past. The painting is not merely an architectural study but also a lively scene populated with figures going about their daily activities, thereby providing a glimpse into the life of Rome during the period.
The attribution to the circle of Vanvitelli suggests that while the painting may not have been executed by Van Wittel himself, it was likely created by an artist closely associated with his workshop or influenced by his style. This connection underscores the enduring impact of Van Wittel's approach to landscape painting and his role in shaping the visual representation of Rome in the early modern period.
