Trained at the Venetian Academy as a vedutista, a painter of perspectival city views, Caneva moved to Rome in 1838 and quickly distinguished himself amid an international group of artists who gathered at the famed Caffè Greco. As early as 1845, he appears on the café\u2019s ledger as \u201cPainter-Photographer,\u201d having adopted the daguerreotype before mastering paper negatives. Caneva\u2019s views of Roman monuments and figure studies of Italian peasants catered to the tastes of the artistic community that flourished in the neighborhood around the French Academy at the Villa Medici atop the Pincian hill. This view is from the villa\u2019s fountain\u2014which remains a popular spot for both artists and travelers ambling on an afternoon passeggiata\u2014toward Michelangelo\u2019s dome of Saint Peter\u2019s.
