"View of Sorrento" is a painting by the French artist Claude-Joseph Vernet (1714–1789), who was renowned for his landscape and marine paintings that capture the grandeur and drama of nature. This particular work is part of Vernet's series of views of Italian coastal scenes, which he produced during his stay in Italy from 1734 to 1753. The painting depicts the picturesque town of Sorrento, located on the Bay of Naples, and is characterized by Vernet's attention to detail and his ability to convey the atmospheric effects of light and weather.

The composition typically features a panoramic view of the Sorrento coastline, with its rugged cliffs and lush vegetation. The foreground often includes figures of local inhabitants engaged in daily activities, which adds a sense of liveliness and human interest to the scene. Vernet's skill in rendering the sea and sky with a sense of movement and changing light conditions contributes to the overall impression of a specific moment captured in time.

"View of Sorrento" reflects the influence of the vedute tradition, a genre of highly detailed, usually large-scale paintings of cityscapes or vistas. Vernet's work in this genre helped to establish him as a leading landscape painter of his time, and his Italian views were especially prized by Grand Tour travelers who sought mementos of their journeys.

While the exact date of creation for "View of Sorrento" is not specified, it is likely to have been produced during Vernet's productive period in Italy. The painting would have been commissioned or later collected by patrons who appreciated Vernet's combination of picturesque beauty and topographical accuracy.

Today, "View of Sorrento" is recognized as an important work in Vernet's oeuvre, exemplifying his mastery of landscape painting and his contribution to the development of the vedute genre. It holds significance not only for its artistic qualities but also for its historical value as a record of the 18th-century Italian landscape as seen through the eyes of a prominent French artist. The painting is a testament to the enduring allure of the Mediterranean landscape and the fascination it held for artists and travelers of the period.
