This painting perfectly illustrates Granet"s achievement as a master of small Roman views. The arch of the Ponte San Rocco provides the frame for a carefully structured glimpse of the Aniene River as it hurtles through the hilltop village of Tivoli, a half day"s ride east of Rome. This is a finished painting intended for a private collector. It was created in Granet"s studio from an oil sketch (Musée Granet, Aix-en-Provence) that was executed outdoors at the site.A student of Jacques-Louis David, Granet first visited Italy in 1802 and returned the next year to stay until 1824.
