Aqueduct in Ruins
Artist: Hubert Robert (French, 1733–1808)
Original Dimensions: 32 1/8" x 54 1/8"
Location: The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York
About Artwork: (not listed) "This painting and its pendant (The Met, 07.225.264a) were most likely among a large group of works by Robert either commissioned or assembled starting in 1780 for a mansion in Paris’s Place Louis XV, today the Place de la Concorde. Both are overdoors, which explains the horizontal format and steep perspective. Robert's workshop was likely involved in the execution of this painting." - (The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York)
