The oil on canvas painting measures 74.3x99.7 cm and is currently held in a private collection. In this artwork, Pannini skillfully combines various classical ruins to create an imaginary landscape that transports viewers back to ancient times.

The scene depicts crumbling columns and remains of grand architecture set against a picturesque backdrop. Each element is meticulously detailed, showcasing Pannini's mastery in capturing both architectural precision and atmospheric beauty. Through his brushstrokes, Pannini invites us to contemplate the passage of time and reflect upon the transience of human creations.
