Eugène Cicéri's "General View of Tivoli" is a lithograph from the series *Italie Monumentale et Pittoresque*, created in 1848. This black and white print captures the majestic scenery of Tivoli, showcasing the cascading waterfall of the Aniene River and the town nestled amidst rolling hills. The print's detailed rendering, with its soft tonal values, emphasizes the natural beauty and grandeur of the location. This artwork, now housed in The Art Institute of Chicago, embodies Cicéri's interest in capturing the picturesque landscapes of Italy during the 19th century.
