"The Tomb of the Horatii and Curatii, at Albano" is a watercolor painting by British artist John Robert Cozens, created during the late 18th century. Cozens, known for his pioneering work in watercolor landscape painting, produced this piece as part of his Italian series, which was inspired by his travels through the country. The painting depicts the legendary tomb of the Horatii and Curatii, which is associated with a famous episode from early Roman history involving a battle between triplet warriors from the Roman Horatii family and the Alban Curatii family. This event was meant to settle a war between Rome and Alba Longa without engaging the two armies in full-scale conflict.

The artwork captures the somber and reflective mood associated with the site, which by Cozens' time had become a picturesque ruin evoking the grandeur and tragedy of the past. Cozens' mastery in rendering atmospheric effects and his subtle use of color contribute to the painting's evocative quality, making it a fine example of Romantic landscape painting. The tomb, set against the backdrop of the Italian countryside near the town of Albano, is portrayed with a sense of poetic melancholy that was characteristic of Cozens' work.

"The Tomb of the Horatii and Curatii, at Albano" is considered an important work in Cozens' oeuvre, reflecting his influence on later Romantic artists and his contribution to the development of the British watercolor tradition. The painting is noted for its historical subject matter, its emotional resonance, and its technical proficiency, all of which exemplify Cozens' artistic vision and skill. The work is held in high regard by art historians and critics and is often studied for its innovative approach to landscape painting and its impact on the Romantic movement in art.
