"View of the Temple of the Tiburtine Sibyl" is a 1809 etching by French artist Jean Jacques de Boissieu. The piece, held in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, depicts a romantic view of a classical temple overlooking a rushing river and a lush landscape. The artist uses delicate lines and shading to create a sense of depth and atmospheric perspective. The composition showcases the temple's grandeur while highlighting the beauty of nature and the power of water. This print is an excellent example of the neoclassical style that was popular in the late 18th and early 19th centuries.
