Jacob Cats' "Italienische Landschaft mit Ruinen, rechts bei einem Wasser ein großer Baum" is a 1789 drawing depicting a sweeping Italian landscape. The scene features a prominent tree framing the foreground, while a winding river leads the eye towards a distant hilltop with ruins and a cityscape. The composition, typical of 18th-century landscape drawings, emphasizes the grandeur of nature and the traces of past civilizations. This drawing, currently housed at the Städel Museum, exemplifies Cats' skill in rendering atmospheric depth and picturesque beauty.
