About the Item

Tourists in Rome is a large-scale painting capturing a contemporary scene aboard an open-top tour bus navigating the streets of the Eternal City. The viewer’s gaze is drawn toward the background, where the Arch of Constantine appears, while the bus moves down Via di San Gregorio. The panoramic composition presents a diversity of faces, cultures, and postures, reflecting the global nature of modern tourism. The work subtly blends four elements: humanity, time, landscape, and art. Humanity, curious and ever-moving, walks through spaces once inhabited by ancient civilizations. Time is marked by everyday objects — digital devices, headphones, cameras — revealing the technological presence of our era. The urban landscape, bright and recognizable, provides the setting for this interaction. And art, ever-present in Rome, becomes the backdrop that enriches the entire scene. This painting thus stands as a visual document of our times, where past and present converge through the act of travel.
