# Rome: View of the Tiber [View the canonical artwork record]() ## Artwork - Artist: [JOLI, Antonio]() - Date: 1701-1750 - Technique: Oil on canvas, 102 x 127 cm ## Commentary The painting shows a view of the Tiber with the Castel Sant'Angelo and St Peter's Basilica. Joli painted the site on a number of occasions, introducing slight changes in the format, viewpoint and staffage of each representation. Several of the versions were based on drawings that the artist took with him around Europe. In each different version the artist varied the mood of the sky and the arrangement of the staffage, though the boatman ferrying two figures lower centre seems to be a constant. ## Related artworks - [Architectural Capriccio]() - [Architectural Capriccio with Figures]() - [Arrival of Charles III in Naples]() - [Capriccio with Elegant Figures]() - [Rome: View of the Colosseum and The Arch of Constantine]() - [Rome: View of the Tiber]() - [The Royal Procession to the Church of Santa Maria di Piedigrotta]() - [View of La Iglesia y la Plaza de San Antonio, Aranjuez]() - [View of London]() - [View of the Bay of Naples]() - [View of the Forum Romanum]() ## Attribution [Web Gallery of Art]()
