Description

The painting was made in the late afternoon in 1807 by dutch painter Hendrik Voogd when he was in the Villa Borghese in Rome The Villa Borghese.
Villa Borghese of Rome is one of the largest urban parks in Europe.
The State acquired the gardens from the Borghese family in 1901.
Originally the villa was ordered by a cardinal in order to gather his Art collection.
What I like with this painting is that the panoramic view and the the crepuscular light bring me a melancholic feeling.
I also like the idea a giant garden filled by pieces of art.
