It depicts a view of Rome, largely occupied by the Tiber River, in the foreground, while the Castel Sant'Angelo is seen at the center left. It also shows a bridge that crosses the river and several buildings on the right. The painter used loose brushstrokes in the canvas in a technique that seems sketchy or even pre-impressionistic.
