"Palatin in Rom" is a landscape painting by the British artist Edward Theodore Compton (1849-1921). The painting features a view of the Palatine Hill in Rome, with the ruins of ancient Roman structures visible in the foreground and background. Compton captures the grandeur and historical significance of the site in a painterly style with a warm palette, typical of Romantic landscape painting. The scene's composition, featuring a stone archway and a long vista through the landscape, draws the viewer's eye to the ancient ruins and the beauty of the Italian countryside.
