Landscape with a Tower by a River and Two Travelers
Original drawing in pen and brown ink, 175 x 248 mm. See: Bolognese Drawings at Windsor Castle, Nos. 44 and 48-50. A finished landscape drawing in brown ink with line shading, on laid paper; the paper time toned, two small tears, laid down on another sheet. The typical foreground Bolognese tree is at the left. The composition centers on an overgrown stone tower and nearby farm building set in a river landscape with other vegetation, a plank bridge leading across a narrow part of the river to the tower, rocky hills in the background and two small figures walking into the distance. In addition to the drawings cited at Windsor Castle, the sheet is similar in style and composition to many of Grimaldi's etchings though not directly related to any of them. A fine, strong drawing if somewhat aged in appearance.
