The intricate detail of the archway and surrounding landscape is characteristic of Papperitz's style, which often featured detailed architectural and topographical views. The artist, active in the mid-19th century, was known for his precise and evocative portrayals of various European locations, and "Gate of Orvieto" is a prime example of his signature approach to etching. The artwork is now held at The Art Institute of Chicago, allowing viewers to appreciate Papperitz's masterful depiction of this iconic Italian landmark.
