EDITORS COMMENTS
View of the Abbey of Monte Vergine high above Avellino, a captivating 18th-century drawing by Louis Ducros. This exquisite chalk on paper artwork transports us to the breathtaking landscape of Campania, Italy, where the Apennine Mountains cradle the isolated monastery. Ducros, a renowned artist of the Roman Catholic faith, masterfully captures the panoramic scene, with the Abbey of Monte Vergine perched majestically atop a mountainside, overlooking the distant town of Avellino. The Apennine Mountains stretch out in the background, their peaks reaching for the sky, while the monastery's white walls and red-tiled roof contrast beautifully against the lush greenery below. The tranquil watercolour painting invites us to imagine the monks' daily lives, living in solitude and devotion, far from the hustle and bustle of city life. The Abbey of Monte Vergine, a territorial abbey and sanctuary, has been a place of pilgrimage for centuries, attracting visitors from all corners of Europe. This stunning view, a testament to the romantic era and the beauty of the Italian landscape, is now preserved in the Rijksmuseum's collection, allowing us to appreciate the artistry and history of this remarkable place.
