Lot Essay

Although unknown to Andrea Busiri Vici at the time of the publication of his monograph on the artist, the present work can be compared with a pair of landscapes on canvas in the Galleria Pallavicini, Rome (see F. Zeri, La Galleria Pallavicini in Roma, 1956, no. 56, pp. 50-1), and to two further works in the Walters Art Gallery, Baltimore, Inv. nos. 37.1143 and 37.1780 (see A. Busiri Vici, Orrizonte, 1974, nos. 121-2 and 107-8).
