The Tiber at Fiumicino, c.1809-c.1812. Creator: Josephus Augustus Knip
The Tiber at Fiumicino, c.1809-c.1812. The plain to the west of Rome, the low-lying land between the city and the Tyrrhenian coastline, was as good as empty in Knip's day. The artist masterfully portrayed this desolation in this minimalist drawing. Nowadays, it is home to Rome's Leonardo da Vinci International Airport, also known simply as Fiumicino, after the nearby seaside resort

EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative drawing by Dutch artist Josephus Augustus Knip, titled 'The Tiber at Fiumicino,' dates back to the early 19th century. The scene depicts the Tiber River as it flowed through the plain to the west of Rome, a desolate and largely uninhabited area in Knip's time. The artist masterfully captures the sense of emptiness and isolation in this minimalist graphite drawing. In the distance, the winding river can be seen meandering through the flat, barren land, leading the viewer's gaze towards the hazy horizon. The low-lying area between Rome and the Tyrrhenian coastline was scarcely populated during this period, making way for the natural beauty of the landscape to take center stage. Today, this area is home to Rome's Leonardo da Vinci International Airport, also known as Fiumicino, after the nearby seaside resort. The transformation of the landscape over the centuries is a testament to the passage of time and the ever-evolving nature of human settlement. This drawing is a beautiful example of the artistic heritage of the Netherlands and Europe during the 19th century. The use of graphite on paper imbues the image with a sense of delicacy and subtlety, making it a valuable addition to any collection of historical art. The muted colors and intricate details showcase Knip's skill as a draftsman, transporting the viewer back in time to a moment of quiet reflection by the Tiber River in Italy.
