We are pleased to present this splendid 19th-century oil painting on canvas. This stunning panoramic landscape of Naples is unsigned on the canvas, but there is a plaque on the frame, G. Gigante. It is likely the work of the famous Italian landscape painter Giacinto Gigante (Naples, 1806–1876), without authentication.
This small painting captures the beauty of the landscapes surrounding Naples with fantastic romanticism. The painted landscape suggests it is a panorama of Naples captured from the Camaldoli hill. This area was much loved by 19th-century Neapolitan painters because from this hill, one can enjoy a suggestive view of Naples and the surrounding mountains. This splendid view of the Gulf of Naples was a much-loved subject for Italian landscape painters of this period. This painting is characterized by a soft light and a very romantic atmospheric rendering of the landscape. If you know Naples, you will be captivated by this painting.
A wonderful painting that will enchant your guests!
The painting is housed in a beautiful 19th-century gilded wood frame.
