"Bei Civita Castellana mit St. Georgs Drachenkampf" (English: Near Civita Castellana with St. George's Dragon Fight) is a notable work by Joseph Anton Koch, an Austrian painter renowned for his contributions to German Romantic landscape painting. Created in 1818, this artwork exemplifies Koch's mastery in blending traditional heroic landscape motifs with elements of historical and mythological significance.

The painting depicts a dramatic landscape inspired by the Italian countryside near Civita Castellana, a town north of Rome known for its picturesque scenery and ancient military significance. Koch, who spent a significant period in Italy, was profoundly influenced by the Italian landscape and often incorporated it into his works. In this piece, he juxtaposes the serene beauty of the natural world with the dynamic and heroic episode of St. George slaying the dragon, a subject often revisited in Christian art for its allegorical representation of good triumphing over evil.

Koch's rendition of the scene is characterized by its meticulous attention to detail and the vivid portrayal of the rugged terrain, which serves as a backdrop for the legendary battle. The artist's use of light and shadow, combined with his skillful rendering of the figures, imbues the painting with a sense of immediacy and drama. "Bei Civita Castellana mit St. Georgs Drachenkampf" is not only a testament to Koch's technical prowess but also reflects the Romantic era's fascination with nature, heroism, and the sublime.

This work is held in high esteem for its artistic merit and its representation of Romantic ideals. It is a significant contribution to the oeuvre of Joseph Anton Koch and continues to be studied and admired for its historical and aesthetic value. The painting is an important piece for those interested in the Romantic movement, the development of landscape painting, and the cultural exchange between the German and Italian artistic traditions of the early 19th century.
