Jacques-Louis David's "View of the Tiber and Castel Sant'Angelo" is a pen and ink drawing that depicts the iconic Castel Sant'Angelo, a mausoleum built for Emperor Hadrian, in Rome. This 1776 drawing captures the majesty of the Tiber River and its surrounding architecture with a sense of realism. David's attention to detail and masterful use of light and shadow showcases the grandeur of ancient Roman structures and the peaceful serenity of the cityscape. The drawing is a testament to David's early talent as an artist and offers insight into his fascination with Roman history and architecture.
