Starting from the 18th century, and throughout the 19th century, Naples was among the favorite destinations for the Grand Tour. The city fascinated by the vastness of its monuments, its archaeological excavations and its beautiful views.
Starting from the 18th century, and throughout the 19th century, Naples was among the favorite destinations for the Grand Tour. The city fascinated by the vastness of its monuments, its archaeological excavations and its beautiful views.
The gouaches were souvenirs and postcards to carry as travel memories, they immortalized the images that most impressed travellers, coastal landscapes, Posillipo and obviously Vesuvius
From what is said, narrated, or painted, Naples surpasses everything: the shore, the bay, the gulf, Vesuvius, the city, the nearby countryside, the castles, the walks... I apologize to all those for whom the sight of Naples makes you lose consciousness!
