Veduta della Cascata di Tivoli

Giovanni Battista Piranesi, 1766

The image shows a waterfall from an elevated angle. In the background, there is a small town. Buildings are on both sides of the cliffs, with the right side appearing more worn. The waterfall is the central focus, depicted with white brushstrokes. The style is intricate and precise, showing the contrast between the cliffs and water. The color palette is grayscale, emphasizing light and shadow. Shadows highlight the texture of the cliffs.
