Artist

Arthur Ashpitel

Arthur Ashpitel is a Romanticism artist. 2 works are cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

Arthur Ashpitel lived in the early 1800s and painted detailed watercolors of Rome. His two works in this set show the same view of the Palatine Hill—one as it looked then, the other as it might have appeared in ancient times, based on ruins and records. It’s like flipping between past and present in the same spot. If you like cityscapes with a side of history, tap **Rome as it was, restored after existing remains** to step inside the scene.
