1826
ink
From the collection of National Gallery of Art
Bologna is a 1826 ink by Richard Parkes Bonington, a Romanticism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This image shows a cityscape of Bologna, Italy. The scene is set in a narrow street with tall buildings on either side. In the distance, a tall tower rises into the sky. People are scattered throughout the street, some standing and others walking. The buildings are rendered in dark lines, while the sky above is lighter, with some clouds visible. The artist has used etching to create this image, which gives it a sense of depth and texture. The use of contrasting tones adds to the overall atmosphere of the scene.
