EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning 18th century watercolor drawing by Louis Ducros captures the breathtaking view of the Italian city of Canosa, located in the Apulia region. The castle, which dominates the skyline, stands proudly atop a hill, its fortifications a testament to the city's rich history. The surrounding landscape is dotted with buildings, some in various stages of decay, while others are still in use. The Onafanto River, which winds its way through the city, adds a sense of distance and scale to the scene. Louis Ducros created this drawing as part of his "Voyage to Italy, Sicily and Malta" album, a record of his travels through Europe during the Romantic Era. The use of grey and colour in the watercolour painting adds depth and texture to the image, transporting the viewer to a time when travel was an adventure and the beauty of the world was a source of inspiration. Canosa, with its castle and surroundings, is a significant archaeological site, and the drawing provides a unique perspective on the city's history and heritage. The panoramic view, captured in a letterbox format, showcases the city's layout and the relationship between the natural and built environments. The sketchbook-like quality of the drawing adds to its authenticity and charm, making it a valuable addition to any collection of European art or archaeology.
