Landscape with figures and ruins, river landscape with fishermen, two oils on canvas with arched sixth. Created by Alessio de Marchis, who was born in Naples in 1684 and died in Perugia in 1752, these paintings measuring 72×88 cm and 76.5×87.5 cm respectively, are fine examples of oil on canvas. They depict landscape scenes with remarkable craftsmanship, capturing the beauty of nature and the human element in harmony. Coming from Italy, they are works of great artistic and historical value.
