View of Roviano, Houses in Rome in the Foreground

Josephus Augustus Knip, c. 1809 - c. 1812

Knip regularly united two entirely unrelated drawings on a single sheet of paper. The town of Roviano, crowned by Castello Massimo, can be seen in a mountain landscape indicated only in outlines. Studies of unidentified houses in Rome fill the rest of the sheet.
