About Artwork: (ca. 1814–17) "In 1813 Picot was awarded the Prix de Rome for history painting, but like many of his contemporaries who worked in this genre, he was inclined to quit the confines of his studio to sketch in oil out of doors. Villa Ludovisi and its gardens—overgrown during Picot’s time in Rome—are now long gone. But the Porta Pinciana, the Aurelian walls, and the Borghese gardens beyond remain more or less as they appear in this scintillating sketch. It was painted a short walk from the French Academy’s headquarters, the Villa Medici." - (The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York)
