"Gezicht op Catania met cactussen en cipressen op de voorgrond" is an 1857-1900 albumen print by Italian photographer Giorgio Sommer (1834-1914). The photograph, now housed at the Rijksmuseum, showcases a panoramic view of the Sicilian city of Catania. The composition emphasizes a long, winding road lined with cypress trees leading the viewer's eye towards the city, framed by a foreground of cacti. Sommer's work is significant for its documentation of landscape and urban views, offering viewers a glimpse into Italian life in the 19th century.
