View of Ariccia from Genzano c. 1810

Josephus Augustus Knip's "View of Ariccia from Genzano" is a detailed pencil drawing created around 1810, showcasing the artist's keen eye for landscape and architectural detail. The drawing depicts a panoramic vista of the Italian town of Ariccia, seen from the vantage point of Genzano. The work captures the rolling hills, the town's buildings, and the distant mountains, creating a sense of depth and perspective. Knip's skill in depicting the subtle variations in light and shade, combined with the precise rendering of the architectural elements, makes the work a notable example of early 19th-century landscape drawing.
