AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Panoramic perspective view from the Tiber River toward Ponte Sant’Angelo, the bulk of Castel Sant’Angelo (foreground on the right) and the dome of St. Peter’s Basilica in Vatican City in the background.

Monochrome lithograph. This specific nineteenth-century technique, based on the principle of repulsion between water and greasy substances on a polished limestone, allowed for the rendering of soft shading, sharp chiaroscuro transitions, and a painterly/drawing-like effect very similar to charcoal or pencil.

Condition: The sheet is intact at the margins. The presence of small brown oxidation spots
