With its glorious setting in the Sabine Hills east of Rome, the medieval monastery of San Benedetto at Subiaco became a popular subject for landscape painters at the turn of the nineteenth century. This plein-air sketch exemplifies Boisselier’s rarefied freshness of vision and scrupulous attention to form and color through virtuoso brushwork. The artist’s choice of a vertical format suggests that his interest lay not only in the view, but in the physical interaction of its elements, with rushing water transformed into vapor as it rises slowly into the clear, warm sky.
