This graphite drawing, created by French artist Joseph Marie Vien between 1744 and 1750, showcases a "Fortified Town in Italy." Vien, known for his Neoclassical style, captures the architectural details of the town with precise strokes. The drawing's perspective from the bottom of a fortification emphasizes the strength and stature of the town's defenses, highlighted by the looming towers and walls. This piece reflects Vien's interest in both landscape and architectural studies, which he often incorporated into his larger paintings.
